On this side of the book of Judges, we can easily find ourselves in a judgmental stance about God's people. This series seeks to study the cycle of relationship with God, falling away, and salvation from our disobedience. We'll do this through the lens of three major players in the book of Judges, learning how to stop this cycle with us.

The Cycle: Having Faith in Tough Circumstances is a challenge for students to look at their lives and be willing to make a change. We are called to much more on this earth than sin, repent, worship, repeat. Let us be the generation to break the cycle.
