Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.

It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Once you get there, turn to the 6th chapter, because from there, we're going to be unpacking the story of Gideon and his great army.

Well, that perspective is completely opposite of what you see in the life of Gideon. Not only did he lack faith in himself, he also, at first, lacked faith in God. Yet, Gideon's story reveals a man who was able to bounce back from being a man of timid faith to becoming a man of fearless faith.

Gideon's story covers more than two chapters in the book of Judges, and he is known as the greatest of all the judges of Israel.

When we first meet Gideon, he is hiding wheat from Israel's enemies. He is timid and he's scared. Let's just say, at the beginning of Judges chapter 6, Gideon isn't the man that we think he is.
