We were in Kentucky a week ago Sunday, so we missed the first of a two-parter on Sampson at Midland Free Methodist last week. It was a sermon that wasn't one that struck me too profoundly, for Sampson's tendency to "lead with his crotch" (as I've long put it) is something a lot of guys can fall prey to, but libido isn't one of my major problem areas.
Apathy is the problem most folks have in a modern era; we lead with our butts rather than our crotch. We have a lot of Facebook warriors in the Army of God, folks who lead with maximized glutei maximi stuck to their comfy chair; mind you, I have three fingers pointed back at me as I point one at the Peanut Gallery.
At least Sampson was making progress in keeping the Philistines at bay, even as he had a weakness for their women. The most a lot of us do to keep the modern-day Philistines at bay is to go through the drive-through at Chick-fil-A. While Sampson used the jawbone of an donkey, we have a jawbone and an ass that are our two most prominent features.
