    Have we left behind, hidden in the dark corners of our hearts, some seed of sin that will come back to test us? God told Israel to kill all their enemies, but they didn’t, and those enemies came back to be the tool that God used against them to prove the

    This is the second sermon from the book of Judges that looks at Ehud the Judge!

    I. Introduction The story we are looking at this morning is in my opinion one of the wildest maybe one of the grossest stories in the Bible. In fact, the first time I heard it I said is that really in the Bible? We are looking at the second judge this morning in the book of Judges. The ...read more

    After a short story based on Judges 3 to introduce the text, this sermon notes how God uses unexpected leaders and how God's leaders overturn idols.

    In an attempt to capture some of the drama of this passage, I want to attempt something different as an introduction to the text. I hope you’ll follow along in your Bibles when I get to the meat of the sermon, but I thought I’d introduce the sermon by reading a short story I’ve ...read more
