    Third Commandment: Christians should never bring shame to the name of God

    What’s in a Name? Introduction How many babies born in America are named “Adolph”? How about “Saddam” or “Osama”? Do you know anybody named “Judas”?

    This is an intro to the series on Judges and sets the stage and context for the following sermons on Gideon and Samson. You could say that the theme of this sermon is "What went wrong?"

It is not so much a question of what we will do with this book as we ...read more
