What do Gideon, Samson, and the repeated cycle of the book of Judges have to do with teenagers today? More than you might think. This week in Come Follow Me for Teens, we study Judges 2–4; 6–8; 13–16 and explore one of the clearest patterns in scripture: when Israel allowed the wrong influences to remain, they drifted from the Lord, fell into bondage, cried out for help, and the Lord mercifully raised up a deliverer. In this episode, we talk about the influences that shape us, the faith of Gideon and his 300 men, and the warning found in Samson’s life about strength, temptation, and covenant confidence. Teens will be invited to ask: What is influencing me? Where do I need the Lord’s strength? And are my choices helping me stay connected to Jesus Christ? The message of Judges is both sobering and hopeful: no matter how many times we fall, Jesus Christ is willing to forgive, strengthen, and deliver us when we turn back to Him.
