Bring Us A King | Wavering Hearts

The book of Judges ends in one of the most haunting statements in the Bible:“Everyone did what was right in their own eyes.” (Judges 21:25)In the final chapters of Judges, we see what happens when people become their own authority. Worship becomes self-defined, truth becomes relative, and chaos begins to spread through the nation.Through the stories of Micah, the tribe of Dan, and the moral collapse of Israel, we’re reminded that the problem was never just leadership. The real issue was lordship.This teaching explores why self-rule always leads to brokenness and why the deeper longing of the human heart is not independence, but a true King.The good news of the gospel is that Jesus came not only to forgive sin but to restore our hearts and lead us into the life we were created to live.
