Today on Summit Life with J.D. Greer.

Have you ever stopped to consider the right or judges is implying to you that maybe the idol itself is wrong?

Maybe you've chosen the wrong thing in which to find power and joy and significance.

Maybe the reason that you're unhappy in love is not because you haven't found Mr. Wright.

It's because ultimate happiness was not found in him anyway.

Music it's because ultimate happiness was not found in him anyway.

Welcome to Summit Life with J.D. Greer. As always, I'm your host, Molly Vitovich.

This month, Pastor J.D. has been walking us through the fascinating book of judges in a teaching series called Broken Saviors. Today, we'll see how over and over again God's people

substituted his plan with their own, with tragic consequences. Does that sound familiar?

Sadly, I think we see a lot of that today, even in the church, combining all of my awesomeness and sprinkling in a bit of God along the way.

I think it's safe to say that doing it God's way, in his power, is always the best choice.

But we are broken and we don't always see it that way.

So our message today is creatively titled Hot Dog Faith. Let's see what he

means as we turn to Judges Chapter 10. Almost nobody knows the story of Jeptha in Judges

chapters 10 and 11 because it is terrible. I mean terrible.

It is going to leave you feeling deeply unsettled,

downright disturbed.

Let's just suffice it to say that this story

would not make for a great bedtime story

for your seven-year-old.

But first, before we get into it,

I want to talk with you about hot dogs.
