Anti-Hero: The Book of Judges - Week 2
Aug 24, 2025 • Mark Stephenson
This is the second week of our fall series entitled Anti-Hero: The book of Judges. The Old Testament book of Judges reads like the first ever graphic novel. God raises up warrior leaders, called Judges, to set Israel free from the oppression of invading armies. However, these leaders are often so riddled with flaws that they would best fit the category of “anti-hero.” The first two Judges, Othniel and Ehud, are two of the best. They are more hero than anti-hero. They leave a strong legacy of deliverance and peace. We have a lot to learn from their family of origin and from the ways in which they defeated their enemies. Let’s watch learn from two of the most heroic Judges in the book of Judges.
