Judges 13 begins the story of Samson—but something crucial is missing. Unlike every other major judge before him, there’s no cry for help. Israel doesn’t repent. They don’t seek God. They simply endure forty years of oppression in silence.

In this episode, we explore why that silence matters—and what it reveals about a generation that didn’t know the Lord. You'll learn how spiritual drift happens over time, how discipleship breaks that cycle, and how God's grace still responds—even when no one asks for it.
