Office Hours: The Wisdom of Samson

Office HoursYou may know Bob Godfrey as a mild-mannered seminary president and author of several books (and a recent video series on church history) but most Lord’s Days he transforms himself into the teacher of the Adult Sunday School class at the Escondido United Reformed Church in Escondido. Last year and this he has been teaching through Judges. This is season 6 of Office Hours and our theme is “to know wisdom” and that theme appears in some unlikely places. One of which is the story of Samson in Judges 13–16. If you haven’t read the story in a while, take a moment and re-read it. The question we wanted to investigate is what the Samson narrative tells us about wisdom and foolishness.

Here is the interview.
