This lesson from Judges 10:1–11:11, titled “Surprising Grace,” highlights God’s incredible ability to redeem broken lives and use unlikely people for His purposes. After a period of peace under Judges Tola and Jair, Israel returns to idolatry and suffers under enemy oppression. When the people finally repent, God responds by raising up Jephthah—a rejected outcast and son of a prostitute. Though disqualified by his past, Jephthah chooses grace over revenge and steps forward in faith to lead the people who once cast him out. The lesson powerfully demonstrates that no one is beyond God’s reach and that true healing and purpose are found when we surrender our past to His grace.
