On today's episode of Back Porch Theology, Lisa sits down with Dr. Preston Sprinkle to dive into the book of Judges through the lives of Deborah, Jael, and Huldah—three remarkable women whose stories reveal a God who is both utterly sovereign and intimately kind. They reflect on what Scripture truly reveals about women, leadership, spiritual motherhood, and everyday influence—and how a right view of God's smiling countenance transforms the way we live, love, and lead. Take a seat and stay awhile; we're so glad you're here.

Even when you're exhausted by life's challenges, you can press on and keep up the pursuit by God's grace. -------- Thank you for listening! Your support of Joni and Friends helps make this show possible.     Joni and Friends envisions a world where every person with a disability finds hope, dignity, and their place in the body of Christ.

Proverbs 16:9 NIV. In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.Judges 14:5 So Samson went down to Timnah with his father and mother, and came to the vineyards of Timnah. Now to his surprise, a young lion came roaring against him.  Vs 6  And the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him, and he tore the lion apart as one would have torn apart a young goat, though he had nothing in his hand. Vs 7   Then he went down and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well. 8 After some time, when he returned to get her, he turned aside to see the carcass of the lion. And behold, a swarm of bees and honey were in the carcass of the lion. 9 He took some of it in his hands and went along, eating. When he came to his father and mother, he gave some to them, and they also ate. But he did not tell them that he had taken the honey out of the carcass of the lion.

Pastor Dennis Ticen - Sermon for March 8 2026. Part 4 of "Mountains + Valleys" - 3rd Sunday of Lent. Judges 4:16-23.

Judges-Mung Hatzaw

Judges 10-12:5

“Then Gideon said to God, ‘If you are truly going to use me to rescue Israel as you promised, prove it to me in this way. I will put a wool fleece on the threshing floor tonight. If the fleece is wet with dew in the morning but the ground is dry, then I will know that you are going to help me rescue Israel as you promised.’” (Judges 6:36–37 NLT) God is multilingual. He can speak to us in any number of ways. He speaks to us through His Word, certainly. He speaks to us through prayer. He speaks to us through our conscience. The Bible records several instances in which God spoke to people through dreams and visions. But God also speaks through circumstances. Although I’m not one to base major life decisions on circumstances alone, there have been times when I’ve sensed that something was the will of God and then had my sense confirmed when things fell into place circumstantially. At other times, circumstances have made it obvious that God was saying no to a particular path or request. A classic example of God’s speaking through circumstances can be found in His calling of Gideon to rescue the people of Israel. Gideon was an extremely humble man, almost to a fault. He didn’t see himself as a rescuer, and he had a hard time wrapping his head around the notion that God saw him in such a light. So, he humbly put God to the test. “Then Gideon said to God, ‘If you are truly going to use me to rescue Israel as you promised, prove it to me in this way. I will put a wool fleece on the threshing floor tonight. If the fleece is wet with dew in the morning but the ground is dry, then I will know that you are going to help me rescue Israel as you promised’” (Judges 6:36–37 NLT). God graciously did as Gideon asked. He intervened ever so slightly in the process of condensation to confirm Gideon’s calling. He spoke through circumstances. In the story of Jonah, God spoke to His prophet through circumstances that involved, among other things, a storm at sea (see Jonah 1:4), a giant fish (see 1:17), a leafy plant (see 4:6), and a hungry worm (see 4:7). God still speaks to us through circumstances today. Often, those circumstances involve other people. There have been times when I was listening to someone preach or talking with a friend and suddenly realized that what the person was saying addressed a situation that I was going through—even though the person was completely unaware of my circumstances. It made me realize that God Himself was speaking to me through those individuals. Maybe God has spoken to you through a pastor or a Christian friend. Or perhaps He has been speaking to you through other circumstances. Listen carefully and remember that God will never contradict His Word. Reflection question: How might God be speaking to you through circumstances in your life?

Join us for our Midweek study through the book of Judges.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for March 5, 2026 is: deem • DEEM • verb Deem is a somewhat formal word used when someone comes to think something or to have something as an opinion after some consideration. // The covered bridge was closed to automobile traffic for the winter because town officials deemed it a hazard to motorists. See the entry > Examples: “bbno$ is an artist who has certainly taken some flak over the years for his style. Some find it to be a gimmick, while others deem it corny. Despite this, he does have a pretty sizable fanbase.” — Alexander Cole, HotNewHipHop.com, 10 Jan. 2026 Did you know? If you feel a sense of doom when asked to define deem, we're here with some details for your dome (sense 7). While today deem is used generally as a synonym of consider (as in “a movie deemed appropriate for all ages”), its origins are more formal, coming specifically from the realm of law. The oldest meaning of deem, which comes from the Old English verb dēman (relative of dōm, meaning “doom”) is “to sit in judgment upon,” as employed by Edmund Spenser in The Faerie Queen: “... at th'one side six Judges were dispos'd, / To view and deem the deeds of arms that day.” This sense was obsolete by the early 17th century, and other senses including “to expect or hope” have come and gone, but deem's use overall has never dimmed. In fact, today's most common meaning of “to come to think or judge something; to consider” has also been in use since Old English and is still deemed quite common.

WOW!!!

The caricature of prophets has hurt the entire church.  To get a clearer picture of what a true prophet of God looks like, we turn to the early prophets of the Old Testament: specifically, Miriam, Deborah, Samuel, and an unknown prophet in the book of Judges.  Their character and function varied, but they all had one thing in common: they got their messages and directives from God.

He chose law because he loved advocacy, persuasion, and the human side of problem-solving. That instinct became the foundation of a nationally respected trial career.The Case That Meant the MostDespite decades of landmark aviation and complex litigation, the most gratifying case of his career was pro bono — helping adoptive parents keep their child after a multi-year legal battle.His takeaway:The cases that stay with you are the ones where you truly change someone's life.Building a National Aviation PracticeA turning point came after the 1972 Eastern Air Lines Flight 401 crash in the Everglades.

It is earned.Streaming on  YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Apple Podcasts. We are also in the top ten percent of listened-to podcasts globally.

Sometimes we struggle in our faith, and today in our study of Judges 2, we will see that the people wavered in their faith and struggled in fellowship with God, and suffered the consequences for it. We'll also see that their struggles lay out key principles for living a life of faith today. Join us for another key study in God's Word! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1.    Who is addressing the people in verse 1? What in verse 1 helps us decode who this is? Why is this important to understand?  2.    What did the people fail to do in verse 3? What was the Lord's response for this failure in verse 3?  3.    How did the people respond in verses 4 & 5? In light of the rest of this chapter, why do you think the people were weeping? 4.    Who died in verse 8? What impact you think this had on the people? Who rose up after him and his generation passed away?  5.    Who did these people begin to serve in verses 11 & 13? What reasons did the podcast give for why people were tempted to worship these false gods? How is this kind of idolatry still reflected in our world today? 6.    Against the backdrop of everything we have studied so far, why is this so astounding? What judgment did their sin receive in verses 14 & 15? 7.    Who did the Lord begin to raise up in verse 16? How did the people respond to them in verse 17?  8.    The podcast explained that the Book of Judges covers 300 years and 7 cycles of sin. What were the stages of their cycle from sin to salvation and back to sin? 9.    The podcast explained that this is also a picture of how we can deal with our sin. What are we supposed to do when we see that our relationship with God is struggling? 10.    What does verse 22 say was the reason for God leaving the unbelieving nations in the Promised Land? How would this have clarified the content of their faith? Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis! Available on Amazon just in time for the Genesis relaunch in January!

Judges 12&13

It's important to have knowledge about God and also have a love-centered relationship with Him. This week, we continue our series in Judges with a look at someone who obeyed God's commands but had a tragic misunderstanding of God's character. Jephthah was a mighty warrior and accomplished amazing things, but his bad theology had terrible consequences for him and his family. It is possible to be deeply and sincerely devoted to God, but also be completely wrong about what He wants from us. Our emotions can mislead us if we don't subject them to the truth God has revealed about Himself. Diving deeper into Scripture can help us love Him more deeply and follow Him more passionately. This week, our hosts continue their discussion on the book of Judges, some of the talking points were, Jephthah's negotiations with the king of the Ammonites, why Jephthah didn't seek council concerning his vow, and what was Jephthah expecting to come out of his house. Oh and tune into the beginning to hear our hosts talk about some instances in their parenting journey that they wish they could do-over.If you would like to watch the video podcast, find us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMhDfGn0zfzi6XjcKkSVcFAFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/discovertbcInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/topekabiblechurchWebsite: https://www.discovertbc.com/

In this episode, John Ortberg offers what he calls “two cheers for guilt and shame.” Drawing from the book of Judges, John explores why justice matters, why moral reality is woven into the fabric of existence, and why a world without any sense of guilt or shame would not be more humane — it would be more dangerous.From the brutal story of Adoni-Bezek to the violent cycles of Judges, we see a profound truth emerge: no one ultimately gets away with injustice. As Jesus says in Luke 8:17, nothing hidden will remain hidden.John traces a major turning point in human history — what C.S. Lewis called the moral law — the moment when ancient Israel connected two ideas that had often been separated:There is one God.And that God is good.Justice is real. Accountability is real. And judgment, properly understood, is good news — especially for the oppressed.But here's the deeper turn:- Guilt and shame can either crush us… or redeem us.- Healthy guilt points out where we have done wrong so we can confess and be cleansed. Healthy shame invites us out of hiding into relationship and grace.- And ultimately, Jesus steps into the story and absorbs the consequences we could not.- “The wages of sin is death.”The sin is ours.The death is his.- The cycle of Judges is broken at the cross.Justice is upheld. Mercy is given.And condemnation does not win.

Biggest Canning Mistakes I See Every Year Canning competitions aren't just about ribbons. They're about courage, skill stacking, community, and stewardship. As Chairperson of the Food Preservation Division at the Florida Strawberry Festival, Wendi shares what really happens behind the scenes — from checking processing times to guiding judges through taste evaluations. What Wendi Learned This Year Many new canners don't realize food has changed over time Modern tomatoes are often lower in acid than older varieties USDA guidelines evolve because food and agriculture evolve pH matters because botulism cannot grow in high acid foods Water bath vs pressure canning isn't optional — it's science Modified recipes require modified processing methods Jars must be washed after processing and rings removed before storage Clean, classic flavors often win over complex combinations Common Mistakes That Lead to Disqualification Incorrect processing times Using water bath when pressure canning is required Adding low-acid ingredients like corn or extra onions without adjusting processing Not following jar size guidelines Leaving rings on and failing to wash jars after sealing Behind the Judging Table Judging is social and collaborative. Judges talk, compare notes, and influence each other. Over three years, a pattern has emerged: Simple, balanced, classic flavors tend to win. Strawberry jam. Apple jelly. Clean Christmas jam. That doesn't mean creative flavors are wrong. It simply means familiar flavors are easier for a group to agree on. Wendi's Encouragement Entering a competition is skill stacking in action: Learning to can Following a tested recipe Filling out paperwork Showing up prepared Receiving feedback Even if you don't win, you gain: Confidence Experience Community connection Improved technique And that matters more than the ribbon.    

Striving for Revival – Judges 1 (B) - 03/03/2026

Isn't it interesting how little kids often shy away from admitting they've had a little mishap in their bed? Perhaps they're a bit shy about admitting their slip-ups. Yet, when the moment arrives, parents handle everything with a heart full of love and zero judgment. Similarly, you might find yourself grappling with a secret sin that's been keeping you captive for quite a while. Perhaps you're feeling a bit shy about opening up to someone about this. So, how often do you find yourself talking about your problems with your Creator? Today, Pastor Mark is here to inspire you to reach out for God's help in overcoming sin. 

This Sunday, Pastor Mike Nolen continues with Week 8 of our "Year of the Word" series with a message from Judges titled, "How to Waste Your Life."

To have these two individuals back on for a post game sort is just flat impressive. To also have the opportunity to do this 2 years in a row with a bright future ahead creates hearts full of gratitude. This post game sort is special and meaningful to a lot of us here at EmpowerU. This platform represents what true character, work ethic and determination looks like while still maintaining integrity and morals. That's the exact definition of this post game sort. Breed by breed we all discuss the mindset behind it all. It's truly amazing to get these judges perspectives after one of the biggest shows in Texas. This is what we've worked so hard day by day to create here at EmpowerU. Take some time to reflect back on the moments in San Antonio where the original turf is still dominant in the industry. Empowerment Is Here.

The Heroes and Great Stories of the Bible (Part 9)Samson – Strength, Weakness, RedemptionSunday, March 1, 2026In this powerful episode, Pastor Verna DeHart unpacks one of the most complex and cautionary stories in the Book of Judges, the life of Samson.Born as a miracle.Set apart from birth.Anointed with supernatural strength.Yet Samson's story is not just about power, it's about drift, compromise, and ultimately redemption.Drawing from Judges 13–16, this message explores the deeper meaning behind Samson's Nazirite vow and the covenant sign of his uncut hair. His strength was never about hair, it was about consecration. And when his heart slowly drifted, his outward calling eventually followed.You'll hear three life-shaping truths:• Anointing does not replace obedience.• Small compromises lead to great collapse.• Failure is not final when repentance is real.One of the most sobering lines in Scripture says, “He did not know that the Lord had departed from him.” This episode challenges us to examine where gifting may be functioning without intimacy and where we may be treating sacred things casually.But the story doesn't end in failure.When Scripture says, “His hair began to grow again,” it signals hope. Consecration can return. Alignment can be restored. Strength comes back to surrendered hearts.This message will prompt you to reflect:Where have I been relying on gifting more than obedience?What small compromises have I normalized?What has God entrusted to me that I must guard carefully?Samson's final prayer reveals a powerful truth: redemption is real, and God restores what we surrender back to Him.If this episode encourages you, share it with someone who needs a reminder that drift is not destiny, and that restoration is available.Subscribe for more messages in The Heroes and Great Stories of the Bible series.

Striving for Revival – Judges 1 (A) - 03/02/2026

It doesn't matter how often you attempt to fill up a tank; if there's a leak, the water will just keep slipping away each time. In a similar way, as a believer, you may find that each time you attempt to recharge with God's Spirit, it feels like you're being drained instead. So, have you ever paused to find the little leaks in your spiritual journey?  Today, Pastor Mark encourages you to take a moment to reflect and discover what might be holding you back. It's possible that some habits or addictions could be the ones causing the trouble. Once you let go of those things, you'll find that God steps in to help you heal and refresh your spirit!

Judges 19 presents one of the darkest and most disturbing chapters in the Book of Judges, exposing just how far Israel had fallen during the era when “there was no king, and everyone did as they saw fit.” Through the story of a Levite, his concubine, and the city of Gibeah, the chapter reveals the complete breakdown of hospitality, justice, priestly responsibility, and covenant faithfulness. Once distinguished from the surrounding nations, Israel now mirrors the moral depravity of Sodom and Gomorrah—only this time, the perpetrators are Israelites themselves. This episode explores the cultural background of concubinage, ancient hospitality expectations, the meaning of “sons of Belial,” and the shocking act that ignites a national crisis among the tribes of Israel.

Preached by Pastor Duncan Ross on 3/1/26. Judges 4:4-16.More information: www.nshorechurch.org

God loves to use the weak things of the world to demonstrate His power.  Gideon and his dwindling army demonstrate that reality in Judges 7.

When God appeared to Moses in the burning bush, he told him his name was Yahweh, which means he will be who he will be. Throughout the Bible we see that God's people regularly used his name. It makes sense for us today to continue this biblical practice. Exodus 3:1-6 God appeared to Moses in the burning bush, introducing himself as “The God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” Exodus 3:13-16 When Moses asked God what his name was, he replied “I will be who I will be.” Then he told him to tell Israel, “Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.” God's name is Yahweh and it means that he will be who he will be. Exodus 20:7 Sometimes people point to the third commandment to not take the name in vain as a reason not to pronounce it at all. The reasoning goes that refusing to pronounce God's name guarantees that it won't be taken in vain. Although it is important not to misuse God's name, blaspheme it, or employ it in a trivial or frivolous way, there's more to it than that. If we are in a covenant relationship with Yahweh, then we carry his name where we go. We represent him to the world. Let's do our best to make him look good! Numbers 5:23-27 God told Aaron and his sons to put his name on the children of Israel. He gave him a special blessing that repeatedly uses God's name. Ruth 2:3-5; Judges 6:11-13; 1 Samuel 3:8-9 Israelites in the Bible regularly used God's name as greetings and to address God. Although it became common later to substitute “the LORD” for Yahweh, this is nowhere commanded or suggested in scripture.The post Names of God: God's Name Is Yahweh first appeared on Living Hope.
