It just keeps getting crazier over here in Judge land. We have a faux-judge to start things off with Abimelech. He once again is showing us the Israel is not getting better. Two minor judges and then we end with Jephthah. He seems to start strong, then goes a little astray, or a lot astray. Millstones can be a variety of sizes. Some turned by a donkey, others by hand. Check Ephesians 4:12-16 passage on equipping the saints or 1 Corinthians 12 passage about parts of the body. Enneagram information at yourenneagramcoach.com.

This is a crazy time. We have not ever experienced this in our country. Others have, but not us. As we go through this we wanted to take a moment and chat with you all. God is not surprised. He is our refuge and our strength. You shall not be fearful. You are the church. Go be the church. See a need, meet it. Use this time to be productive, in whatever way that looks for you.

If you were brought up on Gideon being a hero and someone to look up to, we may crush that idea in this episode. Gideon is quite a mess. Here is a look at what an Ephod would have looked liked, along with the comparison we were thinking.

Girl power!!!! Wow this episode brings the ladies showing up and taking names. It is cool to see the different ways that God uses people to bring about his plan.

Episode 8- Lefty and the fat king

 Get ready this is quite a crazy episode. We look at the best two judges Ehud and Shamgar. Scripture that will be covered is judges 3:12-31. We also briefly look at the Moab/Ammon beginning that gives some backdrop into the book itself.

 Follow the map below - note where the Moabites come from. Note where they set up shop in Jericho. Ehud flees to Seirah and then brings the army down to finish the job (green line). Most of the lines are "guesses" but show likely routes. Credit: Logos.com - pick it up for some useful Bible study tools!

We are finally getting into the actual Judges. Othniel is our first Judge. Main scripture will be Judges 3:1-11. We discuss testing, God testing the people. Daniel Block commentary is legit. Check it out if you would like a little more explanation. (add link here or article).  Questions or comments email us at [email protected].

On this episode we are diving into Judges 2. It explains a bit more of what happened in Judges 1. If you would like to look into the Dictionary of Demons and Deities. (want to put your link in there). The Deeper Dive brings us into a better understanding of who the Angel of the Lord may be. As a messenger of Christ how are we doing? Do we know what God actually says in order to share with others well? Enneagram references are from The Road Back to You. Also can find more information on the Enneagram from the Enneagram Institute.
