S3 E43 – Courage and Doubt – Judges 6

About this episode

This episode explores the story of Gideon from the book of Judges, highlighting his courage and doubt in the face of opposition.

The next judge in the book of Judges is Gideon. A mighty man of valor who will fight the enemy before him with only a small band of unarmed combatants. A man who is called by many a coward when the story begins. But when we stop and consider what Gideon is doing and the opposition that he faces we find a completely different story. Gideon is a man of great courage, but he is also a man full of doubt. A combination of traits that God can work with to accomplish his plans.
