God’s Grace to Samson

How would we expect God to respond to a person who lives foolishly and licentiously? Would we expect that person to be met with God’s judgment or grace? Samson was such a person. As a judge of Israel, he is remembered for his great strength, his love of riddles, his love of women, and his defeat of the Philistines. In this lesson, Dr. Thomas explores the life of Samson and God’s abundant grace in the face of foolishness and self-dependence.
