During the wilderness travels, Joshua served as a Wise General (Ex. 17), a Faithful Scout (Num. 13), and as Moses’ Prime Minister (Ex. 33:11), but now that Moses was dead, the responsibility of leading the People into the Land of ...read more

Our God Is A Great Warrior (Joshua 10:1-11) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 5, 2022

It's maybe more helpful to describe God as the "More Powerful One," than to call him "All-Powerful." We have good theology, but we talk about God in ways that make talk of "omnipotence" pointless. God has your back. And God fights for you.

Joshua 10 is complicated, and I'm not sure how to teach it. Normally, the way stories work, is that there is a flow to them-- an order. One thing naturally leads to another, which leads to another. Stories look like life looks. Everything happens in sequence. In chapter 10, AJ bends the ...read more

God Heeds Our Voice (Joshua 10:1-15) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 8, 2022

When God stops the sun, we find ourselves itching to talk about Joshua's faith. But AJ's focus is on God's willingness to do what Joshua asks-- God "heeds."

Let's start today by simply rereading Joshua 10:1-11 (read it). This brings us to verse 12. The easiest way to think about verses 12-15, is that AJ here hits the pause button on the story, because there's something else he wants to add. He could've talked about it earlier, in verses ...read more

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Nov 29, 2021

Real courage: holding a sword, and obeying/trusting God.

This morning, we start a new series on Joshua. Rather than explain anything, immediately, let's just dive right in. Joshua 1:1: (1) And then, after the death of Moses the servant of Yahweh, Yahweh spoke to Joshua son of Nun, servant of Moses, saying, (2) "Moses my servant has died, ...read more

God Upholds His End (Joshua 2:1-24) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 6, 2021

Here, we see God fulfilling his promise to be with Joshua. Things "work out" for the spies, when they should've died.

Last week, by the end of chapter 1, we had a pretty good feel for the questions we are supposed to bring to the book of Joshua as we read. Yahweh, Joshua, and Israel are going to work together to conquer the land of Canaan. All three-- Yahweh, Joshua, and Israel-- have pledged their commitment ...read more
