Summary

In the story of the Judges, we learn how God uses Israel’s enemies to test their faith so that they might persevere. We also learn how the trials that come in our daily lives are always being used by God to test and strengthen our trust and faith in God.

About the Speaker

Pastor Todd Murphy | Lead Pastor

Todd came to the faith at the age of 19 after growing up in the skateboarding indie-punk culture of the 80’s. He lives with his beautiful wife Christine and six healthy boys, Judah, Anson, Keegan, Aiden, Cailan, and Rowan in a suburb of Providence. Todd is an accomplished Bible teacher with an BA in Biblical studies and MA in Hebrew Bible studies from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He has also taught biblical studies for the department of Philosophy and Religion at Western Kentucky University, and is the author of the Pocket Dictionary for the Study of Biblical Hebrew (InterVarsity Press, 2003). When not writing, preaching or teaching, he can often be found playing Xbox with his sons or surfing with Judah. Once in a while you might even still catch him skateboarding.
