Ben Brown // March 8, 2020 The nation of Israel has committed genocide against the tribe of Benjamin, leaving only 600 men alive. This chapter closes out the dark book of Judges, giving us a sobering picture of what happens when there is no King, and we all do what is right in our own…

Seth Bush // February 29, 2020 This passage covers the retaliation of Israel against the Benjaminites as they seek vengeance for the death of the concubine. When we become hardened with being right, we miss out on Jesus. We don’t need another judge, we need a King.

John Vermilya // January 11, 2020 The saga of Jephthah concludes in Judges 12 with a brutal civil war. Pride ruins relationships and is death for churches. The way of Christians is to be humble like Jesus, described in Philippians 2:1-8. Unity is only possible with humility, and that starts by identifying prideful shibboleths.
