Gideon – A Faith That Challenges Life

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Sep 19, 2021

Gideon didn’t start out with strong faith, rather he started off weak, and scared, but God still used him to do great things. When we face times when life’s challenges are bigger than we are, that is when our faith in God, like with Gideon will see us through.

Contributed by Trevor Chuma on Jan 14, 2019

As the children of Israel were about to enter the promise land, the Lord appeared unto Joshua and said; “No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life.

It says, “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or ...read more
