Watch

This book has certainly been sobering, hasn’t it? A lot of violence and abuse. A lot of unfaithfulness. Anarchy puts everyone at risk. You might be tempted to think God chose the wrong people. You might wonder why He didn’t quickly remove them. No one looks very good at the end of this book, do they? 

The only real hero in this story is God Himself—the only one with integrity. The one who exercises justice. The one who is faithful to His promises. The one who remembers His promises. The one who “shows up” even in the darkest of times—especially in the darkest of times—to rescue His people.

And that’s where we are headed next: to a story about an unsuspecting foreigner who enters these dark ages in Israel’s history—a foreigner who reminds God’s people about God’s faithfulness. When you’re ready, come join us.
