Junior High Week in Review: Week #17: October 27, 2009
Weekend Teaching Series: Heroes 
Message Title: The Judge Who Wasn’t
Sermon in a Sentence: Be careful which voices you allow to have influence in your life.
Text(s): Judges 8-9
Weekend Scale of Difficulty: 6 out of 10, There wasn’t anything out of the ordinary in tonight’s service. The only difficulty was the normal and enjoyable task of exegeting a passage of scripture and learning to hear and speak its message to a new generation.
Message Summary:
Our Heroes series based on the book of Judges for Junior High continued this week. However, for the first time in our series we talked about someone whom the Bible never calls a judge. Abimelech, son of Gideon, is sometimes listed among the judges of Israel, but he neither saved Israel from any threat, nor was he called by God to this task. His tale is just the end of the story of the judge Gideon.
