Jephthah was the illegitimate son of a prostitute mother and adulterous father. He was despised and rejected by his half-brothers, stripped from his rightful inheritance, and forced out of his home and onto the streets, where he would eventually join a gang and commit to a life of crime and rebellion from God. Sadly, his life would forever be marked by a tragic vow that would cost him everything. He was unlikely in every way to have a life of significance, let alone be used by God as a hero and deliverer for his nation. Yet his is a story of redemption. This is a story that reminds us that none of us are beyond God's power to save, and none of us are beyond God's grace to restore.
