In this episode, we trace the story of Samson alongside Israel’s first judge, Othniel, to see how far God’s people—and their leaders—have fallen. From miraculous birth to tragic end, Samson’s life is marked by strength without holiness, victory without faithfulness, and passion without obedience. By comparing these two judges, we uncover the pattern of Israel’s sin, the danger of compromise, and the faint but real thread of faith God refuses to extinguish. Ultimately, Samson’s story points beyond human weakness to our need for a true King—one who can save us not only from our enemies, but from ourselves.
