Over the last few weeks we've been looking at the book of Judges as part of Telling the Big Story, our walkthrough of the Old Testament.

So in this final part, Nathan Jones tries to respond to those questions and others raised on the Slido link that was shared. 'We do Q&A's partly because its just a chance to engage a bit more...partly because its part of our DNA, part of our theology of who we are because theology should always be in conversation and community...' ~Nathan Jones
