    When Heroes Fail Us Series

     | 7,883 views

    Samson had all the resources to be a great hero, except for one thing, a powerful lust. What makes this man a candidate for the hall of fame in Hebrews 11:32? What makes us potential heroes for God?

    WHEN HEROES FAIL US Are there any heroes left? Do you have anyone in your life you would consider a hero? Are there men or women who you look up to? Our children and teenagers look up to a variety of stars as models to follow. Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers have captured the younger hearts. ...read more

    The Perils Of Confronting Evil Series

    Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Aug 19, 2008
     | 8,394 views

    Samson confronts the Philistines while the Israelites cower and wonder about their future. What they don’t realize is that allowing evil to continue will destroy their future.

    THE PERILS OF CONFRONTING EVIL “The only thing necessary for the triumph [of evil] is for good men to do nothing” (Edmund Burke, English Philosopher). Confrontation is never easy. It is probably the last thing any of us really wants to do. When we see a brother or sister in Christ behaving ...read more

    Can You Have God's Gifts Without God's Blessing Series

    Contributed by Charles Jones on Sep 3, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,680 views

    Samson demonstrated that it is possible to experience the gifts and power of God without the blessing of God. God gives people abilities to accomplish His purposes, but that in no way guarantees that they will seek to know Him or follow His ways.

    When we look in the book of Hebrews Chapter 11 which is called "The Heroes of the Faith" we see where the Bible lists Samson as a hero of the faith the unknown writer of Hebrews say’s in (Heb. 11:32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gideon, and of Barak, and of ...read more

    When Samson’s hair was cut he lost his power, the Spirit of God left him. However when his hair grew back and he returned to God his power came back. If we fail God and return our spiritual power returns.

    I FEEL LIKE MY HAIR IS GROWING BACK Text: Judges 16:22 Howbeit the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaven. a.

    Samson's Achilles' Heel

    The truth is, we have our own “Achilles’ heel.” These are areas of the enemy’s favorite target points. We may fall like Samson (only He knows) except when we lean on God’s grace in the spiritual battle. When God gives special abilities, the more we shall
