    17th in long series on Joshua. This gets into prayer, and giving our burdens to God. Close tie-in with 1 Peter 5:7.

    The parable of the Sower story with four responses by the hearers: Pay it no mind, A Passing Interest, Too Preoccupied, Perceptive and Productive.

    Stretching you past your limits to cope, God can use a crisis to bring us close and draw a crowd along with us to him.
