What happens when one generation fails to pass down its faith? Judges tells the story of Israel’s slow spiritual decline, where partial obedience leads to total rebellion. Instead of driving out their enemies, Israel allows them to stay. Instead of worshiping God, they embrace the idolatry of Baal. Within just one generation, they forget the Lord entirely. The result is heartbreaking—compromise, suffering, and repeated cycles of defeat.

This episode explores how Israel lost its way and why it’s still relevant today. The same dangers exist for families now. If parents assume their children will follow God without being taught why, faith will fade. Culture will gladly step in to fill the void. How can you ensure the next generation stands firm in their faith? What does it take to actively pass on truth?

Discover the importance of teaching, modeling, and reinforcing faith in daily life. Learn why five minutes a week isn’t enough to shape a child’s spiritual future. Be encouraged to talk openly about standing for Christ, even when it’s difficult. Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, or mentor, this message is for you. The next generation depends on what you do today.
