During the Passover, God judged the Egyptian gods and exposed them as lies. Israel was always meant to show the world who the one true God is yet we find when they enter the Promised Land, they turn to worship the gods of the people around them. They can't show the world the glory of God when they are giving their allegiance to the gods of the people around them. This will be an issue for Israel moving forward. Judges also points us to the need of a leader, a king, who can direct us towards faithfulness to God.

There are plenty of gods in our society disciples are tempted to serve. When we give these "gods" our allegiance and worship, we compromise showing the world how amazing the true God is. This sermon challenges the "gods" we are tempted to worship.
