Below are some discussion questions that can help you reflect on the sermon:


  1. Initially Gideon feels underqualified for the calling God makes on his life. Have you ever felt unqualified for a calling or responsibility?
  2. Read Judges 6. How can Gideon's story help us deal with feelings of inadequacy when faced with a calling or challenge?
  3. Read Judges 7.  The concept of "too many people" (Gideon having too large an army) is an interesting one. How can this idea apply to our own ministries or our vocations? When might trusting God involve letting go of control or certain ways of doing things?
  4. Gideon ends up making an idol (the ephod) out of his success. Can you think of any times in your own life where you've taken credit for something God played a role in? How can we be mindful of giving God the credit he deserves?

Below are some questions to help you reflect on the sermon:


  1. Describe a time when someone surprised you by doing a great thing when you didn’t expect much from them.
  2. Read Judges 4 and 5. How does God deliver his people in an unlikely way?
  3. We can see that God is working through the weak and unexpected. Can you think of a time in your own life when you felt weak or unqualified, yet God used you in a surprising way? How can we be more open to seeing God working in unexpected ways?
  4. We See that God's victory is already secure through Jesus. How can this concept change the way we approach challenges and relationships in our lives?
