Judges 11

Jephthah was the son of a whore. He knew life was so much more And he was real good at war. Gilead was the daddy o’ that boy And let his wife kick the boy right out. He fled from his brothers and went to Tob And found a lot of worthless friends. But when […]

The Hope of the Resurrection

The hope of the resurrection is not a “I hope He picks me” kind of a hope or a “I hope He picks my kids” kind of hope.  No.  It is a hope of confident anticipation.  It is a waiting hope like the people in a church with the groom facing them as they wait […]

Judges (Finished)

To read the book of Judges Is to read about chaos, Everyone doing his own thing. What seems good or right, You do day or night. With all your might, You walk by sight. Might like peace or prefer a fight; ‘Tis all good.  Do what you would! Don’t matter what you like: Ride a […]
