Samson (CSSA Junior Stage 2 Lesson 15)
The life of Samson can be very easy to make relate-able to children. The struggle we see within Samson as he wants to do God’s will and yet struggles with the weight of sin – as Paul said “For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.” The life of Samson is so much more then a man struggling with the lust of the eyes – it’s about the battle that rages within each of us to fight for the inheritance God has promised us, while sin wars a battle against the spiritual man.

for when I am weak, then am I strong.”
