In this gripping episode of Finish the Race, we dive deep into Judges 8, where Gideon’s leadership and God-ordained mission come to a climactic close. After defeating the Midianites, Gideon’s journey doesn’t end—he confronts betrayal from within Israel’s own borders. The men of Ephraim, Succoth, and Penuel all challenge his authority, but Gideon doesn’t flinch. With divine confidence, he calls out cowardice and delivers justice to those who doubted God’s anointed deliverer.
