Even the 1960 movie "Inherit The Wind" mocked this miracle. Skeptics have long maintained that the world would be torn apart if the earth stopped rotating and the Sun stood still. Find out why those skeptics were wrong.

The U.S. Civil War was the most devastating in American history. From 1861 to 1865 – the War dragged on for four long years. Part of the reason it lasted so long was that Union Generals would delay and postpone and stall, saying that they were so outnumbered they needed more time to prepare. ...read more

"The Secret To Joshua's Success" Series

Contributed by David Henderson on Jun 6, 2016

Let me begin this morning by asking you a few questions-how big is your God? How big is your faith? How big is the biggest prayer you have ever prayed? These three questions are very tightly connected. The size of your God will determine the size of you

“The Secret to Joshua’s Success” Joshua 10:1-14 LB JB Phillips wrote a classic little book in 1952 titled your God is too small. The idea behind the book is very simple. All of us have created an image of God in our minds and that image is simply not adequate. It’s not big ...read more

The Enemy Is Under Your Feet

Contributed by Bala Samson on Mar 5, 2021

Observe, Joshua did not do that himself but he was instilling grit and guts in the hearts of his leaders.

Praise be to the glorious name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. God is good, and His mercy endures forever!

Joshua’s Gigantic Faith

Contributed by Samuel M on Jul 14, 2024

The source of Joshua’s faith is his alignment to God’s will or his knowledge of God’s plan. Joshua when he knew from God that defeating the 5 kings was God’s will, he went to the extent of stopping the sun in order to carry out God's plan.

And the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hand; not a man of them shall stand before you.” Joshua 10:8 Then Joshua spoke to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel: Sun, ...read more

Audacious Faith

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

Seizing The Moment Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022

When we start claiming new territory for the Lord, as in leading people to faith in Christ, we will more than likely have to fight some spiritual battles; and fighting can be tiresome. Fighting can leave us weary and discouraged wishing the conflict was at an end; wanting to slow down and enjoy ...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

Don't Fear Nephilim (Joshua 10:16-28) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 9, 2022

Dedicating to destruction is designed to kill off nephilim-- the descendants from Genesis 6:1-4. Here, Joshua body bags 5 of them.

Our passage this morning shouldn't make sense to you. Not because the language is complicated, or because it's hard to visualize the events it describes. It shouldn't make sense to you, because the battle we've been reading about for the past two weeks between Israel and the ...read more
