Gideon: The Cowardly Judge?
from In The Beginning: A Bible Story for the Girlies · host Avela Fongoqa
This week we’re talking about one of the most relatable people in the Bible: Gideon. Before he ever led 300 men into battle, he was hiding, doubting, and questioning whether God had really chosen him. We unpack who Baal was, why Israel kept turning away from God, and what happened when Gideon’s obedience completely changed his relationship with his own family. We also talk about the reality that following Jesus can sometimes create tension in our closest relationships and why that’s not always a sign you’re doing something wrong. As always, we’ll laugh, learn, and see what this story has to say to us today. 💛📖
