Sermon video – Judges 9

In Judges 9, we read the tragic story of Gideon’s son Abimelech, who rises to power on the blood of his brothers, and dishonors God by partnership with idol worshipers, leading to his own demise, as well as theirs. Not a pleasant story is Gideon’s family legacy, but important lessons for us are found in it, particularly coming from the voice of Jotham, who tells his enemies, “Listen to me, so that God might listen to you.”
