• Determining What’s Right and What’s Wrong. (Judges 21:1–25)

  Send us a textWelcome to The Bible Project Daily Podcast. Today, we reach the final chapter of Judges—a disturbing yet powerful conclusion that forces us to ask: How do we know what’s truly right? The Israelites believed they were doing the right thing, but ended up compounding injustice with more and more sin. In this episode, we reflect on the dangers of relying on our own judgment, and the call to seek what pleases the Lord. Because when we do what is right in our own eyes, we often miss what’s right in His.📌 Episode NotesSummary: What starts with grief ends in rationalization, manipulation, and moral confusion. This tragic end reveals the consequences of a nation with no king—and a people doing what is right in their own eyes. But as believers today, we do have a King: Jesus. And the call is not to follow our hearts, but to follow Him.Key Verse:“In those days, there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.” — Judges 21:25Takeaway: Right and wrong are not determined by instinct or urgency, but by abiding in Christ and asking daily: Does this please the Lord?Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

• The Danger of Getting Ahead Of The Lord. (Judges 20: 1-48)

  Send us a textWelcome:This episode looks at how Israel, in the aftermath of a horrifying crime, rushes to act — with justice on their side but without first waiting on God. Their initial victories turn tragic, resulting in staggering losses and a near-eradication of a tribe. The story reveals a critical truth: even when we do the right thing, we can get it terribly wrong if we get ahead of God.Key Verse:“Apart from Me, you can do nothing.” — John 15:5Takeaway: Justice without God becomes vengeance. Zeal without wisdom leads to ruin. Stay close to the Lord — and don’t just follow His Word… follow Him.Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

• When is the Right Time To Speak UP? (Judges 19: 1-30) (Warning Explicit Content)

  Send us a textWarning Very Explicit Biblical Content.  Listener discretion required. Not suitable for Children or vulnerable adults.It’s Time to Speak UpLet me end with one final observation — and I believe it comes straight from the last verse of this dark, sobering chapter. It says: “Consider it, confer on it, then speak up.” That’s the call.So when is it time to speak?Let me give you some biblical guidance — a few situations where God’s people must raise their voices.1. Speak Up When There’s InjusticeThat’s the heart of this passage. A woman was brutally abused and killed, and the question is raised: What will Israel do about it?What will you do?If you see injustice — in your community, in your workplace, in your neighbourhood — you don’t sit back. You say something.God’s people are called to stand for justice — not just pray about it, but speak into it.2. Speak Up When People Are in DangerThe men of Gibeah weren’t just wicked. They were dangerous. Do you think what happened that night would be the last time they acted like that?And so it’s time to speak up — to prevent further harm.If you have a friend drinking themselves into despair… If someone you know is spiraling in addiction… If someone is caught in a destructive relationship or lifestyle… Love says something. Silence is not kindness. Sometimes silence is complicity.So yes — for their good, for their soul — say something.3. Speak Up About JesusMost importantly: speak up about the only true hope — Jesus Christ.The solution to the mess we’re in isn’t better laws. It’s not moral behavior. It’s spiritual transformation.That’s why we need to speak.People need the Lord. That’s not cliché — it’s reality. He’s the only one who can rescue this culture, this country, and any human soul from the cliff it’s racing toward.So yes, speak up. And don’t worry about the labels.Today, if you say anything unpopular, you're called a bigot. A phobe. A hater.This isn't on it andut hate. It’s about holiness. It’s about a God in heaven who wrote this Book — and who still speaks through it.If this Book is true, then we must speak. If it’s not, then anything goes.But I believe it’s true. And I believe it’s time to speak.Closing WordsYou’ve heard it before. But it bears repeating. Edmund Burke once said:“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”So, brothers and sisters in Christ — Consider it. Confer on tie and speak up.That’s what this passage is calling us to do.Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

• Departing from the Lord (Judges 18:1–13)

  Send us a textWelcome to The Bible Project Daily Podcast. Today, we’re looking at Judges 18 — a sobering account of how a whole tribe, the Danites, slowly walked away from the Lord. This isn’t just a story of ancient idolatry; it’s a powerful warning about what happens when God’s people stop trusting His Word and start crafting a religion that suits their own desires. From misplaced trust to spiritual shortcuts, the story of Dan holds up a mirror to our own lives. Let’s walk through this passage together — and ask: Are we truly walking with God, or just going through the motions?Summary: In this episode, we follow the tragic path of the tribe of Dan as they forsake God’s promise and pursue their own plan. Instead of claiming their God-given inheritance, they seek out easier alternatives — and end up embracing idolatry. Through their journey, we see the subtle danger of drifting from the Lord, the consequences of compromised worship, and the challenge to return to genuine trust and obedience.Key Verse:“In those days Israel had no king; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.” — Judges 18:1Takeaway: True worship isn’t about convenience or appearance — it’s about obedience, trust, and the real presence of God. If you’ve wandered, there’s still time to return.Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com
