    BROKEN SAVIORS // Gideon - Part 2
    Jul 6 2025
    Gideon's story in Judges 7 is no mere underdog tale. A fearful man, he’s transformed by God’s presence as his army shrinks from 32,000 to 300, showing:
    1. Weakness fosters reliance on God’s power (2 Corinthians 12:9).
    2. Salvation comes through humble obedience, not might, pointing to Christ.
    3. God patiently reassures doubt.
    4. Faith requires risky steps.
    5. Weakness becomes strength through God.
    6. Courage comes from Christ’s presence.

    Gideon’s later pride warns against self-reliance. We daily depend on Jesus, who overcame sin and death.

    BROKEN SAVIORS // Gideon
    Jul 6 2025
    Fear disrupts normal life. Success hinges on managing fear, as illustrated in Judges 6 with Gideon:
    1. God Makes the Called Brave: Gideon, a coward, is called a "mighty man of valor" not for his courage but for what God will make him.
    2. We Are God’s Instruments: God uses us to accomplish His work in our generation.
    3. Start at Home: Gideon destroys his family’s idol first, showing personal transformation precedes external impact. Idols cause disobedience and anxiety.
    4. Courage Despite Fear: Courage is following God amid fear, empowered by His promise, “I am with you.”
    5. The Cross Replaces the Fleece: The cross assures us of God’s presence and love, casting out fear (1 John 4:18).
    Courage comes from our identity in Christ, not personal strength, enabling us to act as His ambassadors.

  • BROKEN SAVIORS // Deborah and Barak

    BROKEN SAVIORS // Deborah and Barak
    Jun 23 2025
    In Judges, Israel’s idolatry led to oppression by King Jabin and Sisera. God raised Deborah, a prophetess and judge, who directed Barak to defeat Sisera’s army. A miraculous rainstorm disabled Sisera’s chariots, ensuring Israel’s victory. Jael killed the fleeing Sisera with a tent peg. Deborah’s song teaches that faithful leadership glorifies God, inaction is cursed, and obedience achieves God’s purposes. Ultimately, God will right all wrongs, pointing to Jesus as the ultimate Savior who brings justice and forgiveness.

    BROKEN SAVIORS // Southpaw Savior
    Jun 16 2025
    The Book of Judges follows a repetitive cycle: Israelites worship idols, God allows enemies to oppress them, they cry out, and God raises a judge like Ehud to deliver them. Ehud, a left-handed man with a disabled right hand, kills the Moabite king Eglon, showing God uses unlikely heroes. God triumphs through our weakness, gives us salvation comes faith, overcomes opposition, and values availability over ability.

  • BROKEN SAVIORS // The Causes and Cure for Spiritual Inconsistency

    BROKEN SAVIORS // The Causes and Cure for Spiritual Inconsistency
    Jun 9 2025
    Throughout the book of Judges, one can see Israel’s spiritual cycle of disobedience, judgment, cries for help, rescue by judges, and then relapse. They start strong (1:1-4) but fail to fully obey, blaming iron chariots (1:19) and enslaving some (1:28). Key lessons from Judges chapters 1 and 2:
    1. Disbelief breeds disaster.
    2. Forgetting God’s works leads to abandoning Him.
    3. Idols enslave; God saves.
    Flawed judges can’t fully save, but God’s covenant points to Jesus, who delivers and atones. Cure: repent, obey, pray, and trust God.

    "When You Believe in God but Worry All the Time" explores how chronic worry among believers reflects a lack of trust in God. So many of us have a restless soul. We are always searching but never finding. We are interested in everything, but satisfied by nothing. Worry is futile and harmful. Believers must surrender anxiety, focus on what they can control, and trust God’s provision in order to their deepen faith.

    "When You Believe in God but Trust More in Money" addresses Christians who claim to trust God but prioritize money for security and happiness. Jesus teaches that your heart follows your treasure and you cannot serve both God and money. The love of money, not money itself, leads to evil (1 Timothy 6:10). Wealth often fosters trust in money over God, especially in affluent societies. True peace comes from surrendering all to God, and honoring Him with everything through prayer.

    "When You Believe in God but Pursue Happiness Your Way" considers how believers choose joy in God despite dire circumstances. Happiness is not tied to external conditions, is a deliberate choice, and is found in God alone. Scriptures like Philippians 4:4 affirm joy is always possible through faith. This focus on God offers eternal hope through salvation in Jesus.
