## Resource

Explore Judges 13–16 through the story of Samson, an unlikely hero who reveals profound truths about God's grace and salvation. Despite his flaws and pride, Samson’s life points toward our own struggle with trusting our strength instead of God’s power. Discover how real strength comes not from ourselves but from God alone.
