What happens when we do what is right in our own eyes? Judges 19-21 show us the moral chaos that occurred in Israel because no one worshipped the King. Join us as we discuss the most difficult passage in the Old Testament. 

In Judges 17-18, we see God's people doing what is right in their own eyes. We can do the same thing today. Both are an attempt to create God or Christianity how we want them to be rather than how they are. Join us as we look at three probing questions from this passage.

We have a tendency to trust in our strengths while neglecting our weaknesses. This can be a fatal mistake. Join us as we look at the famous story of Samson and Delilah and learn two valuable lessons about our weaknesses.

How can we tell the difference between true Christianity versus an imitation version? Judges 15 provides a critical contrast to help us see this distinction. 

In Judges 14, we see Samson's flaws. He was a man called to be set apart but his flaws got in his own way. How can we learn from Samson's mistakes and live our lives in obedience to God's calling?

The only way for us to endure our failures and struggles with sin are to see them in light of the finished work of Christ on the cross. Join us as we look at four vital truths from Zechariah 3.

Today is Pentecost Sunday! Join us as we answer the questions: Who is the Holy Spirit? What does the Holy Spirit do? and Why do we need the Holy Spirit? John 14.

What's the relationship between good works and salvation? Is there one? How are good works a means by which we treasure Jesus? Join us as we discuss this in Titus 2-3.

What is your calling as a believer? Join us as we see how the calling on Samson’s life informs our calling as followers of Jesus. Judges 13

Judges 10-12 introduces us to Jephthah. In a passage that raises lots of questions, we have lessons that we need to remind ourselves and apply to our lives to be the disciples that God will use.

This is the most important question you will ever answer. Join us as we look at this crucial passage in Matthew 16, to see who Jesus is and why it matters. 

Why should the church focus on going to the nations? Why should the church seek to send people out on mission? Join us as we look at the impetus for Christian missions and celebrate the Clarks as they go.

While no one wants to hit rock bottom, for many, it is the means by which they see their need for Jesus and turn to him. For others, it is the means by which they grow in the Lord. In that case, hitting rock bottom is a grace.  Join us as we look at Israel hit rock bottom, and how the Lord shows them his grace in this.

How and why is success dangerous? How does success tend to ruin so many people? Join us as we examine the dangers of success and how we can avoid falling into them.

By nature, we struggle with self-reliance and pride. We must learn that God will not use those who think they can do the work of the Lord, or anything, in their own power. Instead, we must live wholly dependent on him. Join us as we look at this great principle in Judges 7. 

Many people realize the Lord has called them to live for him, but the struggle is having the courage to live it out. How can we have the courage to live as the Lord has called us to? Join us as we look at four ways to live courageously in Judges 6 

The theme for Ignite this year was Surrendered: How can we live fully surrendered lives for Christ. Join us as we wrap up or student ministry weekend by answering the question, how can we surrender our sinfulness by diving into Mark 9:42-50.

God brings deliverance in unexpected ways. He did in the Old Testament, and it is to show us what he can do through anyone at any time if we would just have faith. Join us as we look at the unexpected deliverers of Judges 4-5 in this unexpected, yet epic story.

What type of people does God use, and how can we be used by God? These questions are often answered incorrectly because we think more about our ability than God’s ability to work in us. Join us as we see the true answer to these questions in Judges 3.

Everyone treasures someone or something. The question is what or whom do you treasure? When we don’t treasure the Lord, the evidence will be clear in our lives. Join us as we see these truths in Judges 2.

Abortion. Pro-Choice. Pro-Life. There is a lot to unpack in this discussion. Today, we ask and answer the question: What is the biblical foundation for supporting life? Join us as we look at the foundations, implications, and application of being created in the image of God.
