BOOK OF JUDGES
The Unraveling of a Nation
6.29.25

Judges 21:25
In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.


When people abandon the ways of God and reject His authority, the inevitable result is moral confusion, injustice, and chaos.


A society that abandons God’s ways will soon turn its back on people, forgetting that every person is created in His image and worthy of dignity and honor.

A society that abandons God’s ways will lose its moral compass, the ability to distinguish between what is right and wrong, and the ability to rightly uphold justice.

A society that abandons God’s ways will try to fix spiritual problems with human solutions, resulting in more hypocrisy rather than repentance and transformation.


Judges 21:25
In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.


Pastoral response to living faithfully in a fractured world:
Don’t be surprised by the unraveling around you but stay rooted.
People are not the enemy they are the mission.
Let’s say the truth but let’s say it like Jesus.
Embody the gospel before you argue for it.
Jesus people will always care for the vulnerable.
We must ask: Where does my life reflect the culture more than the kingdom of God?
