Embrace The Shake

What if the very limitation, liability, or weakness you've spent your entire life hiding is the exact avenue God wants to use to display His power?In this stand-alone guest sermon on Judges 3:12–30, guest speaker Chris Brooks dives into one of the most unusual, dramatic, and humorous stories in the Old Testament: the deliverance of Israel through Ehud, a left-handed leader from the tribe of Benjamin. Chris unpacks the concept of "left-handed power" in the kingdom of God, contrasting human desires for control and dominance with how God routinely uses restricted, imperfect, and fragmented lives to accomplish His purpose.
