Judges Sermon Series and Small Group Gathering
For the Fall or 2022 we will be exploring the stories in Judges through sermons, small groups, and personal reflection. The book of Judges is a strange, confusing anthology of stories of the people of Israel as they settle into the promised land. We will see a pattern of his people rejecting God only to call out to him in times of trouble (sounds familiar, right?). We will also see God's offering of grace and redemption to the undeserving (also familiar).
"Judges is about a God of mercy and longsuffering, who continually works in and through us despite our constant resistance to his purpose. God works to rescue his undeserving people through, and out of, the mess their sins bring them into." ~ Timothy Keller
