• Webb speaks on Samson from Judges 16:4–22. Samson reveals the secret of his strength to Delilah out of a desire to be released from God’s call on his life. Set apart from birth to deliver Israel, he was equipped to fulfill his God-given purpose yet resisted the calling. In the end, God grants Samson’s desire, and he becomes weak like any other man. Despite this reversal, Samson still accomplishes his task, as God reclaims His servant in mercy. Israel’s story parallels Samson’s: chosen by God yet wayward in calling, the nation also experiences imprisonment before redemption. For Christians today, Samson’s story reflects the tension between calling, failure, and God’s redeeming grace. Webb challenges listeners to consider whether the call of God has captivated their hearts or if, like Samson, they long for other things besides Him.
