Joshua And The Walls Of Jericho

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 22, 2020

This is a great children's story. But as adults, it prompts some difficult questions. Is it even true? How could God destroy an entire city? It's also a wonderful example of God's people overcoming a seemingly-insurmountable obstacle through faith and obedience.

When God Doesn't Make Sense

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Nov 19, 2022

Most of us don't want to admit it, but more often than not God's instructions don't make sense. That's because God is not a sense God, he is a faith God. The question is... What do you do when God doesn't make sense?

Failure To Launch Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Nov 14, 2021

Joshua didn’t go out on a wing and a prayer or a gut feeling or trust in his own instincts. He went with God’s promises and He had God with him.

How many of you suffer from “atychiphobia” [a-ticky-phobia]? [Raise my hand.] Aw, common on … really? I’m the only one? It might help you if I tell you what it means, amen? “Atychiphobia” [a-ticky-phobia] is the “fear of failure” and, trust me, it’s a very, very common phobia. I have it every ...read more

Take Off One Sandal-- The Place Your (Two) Feet Touch Is Holy (Joshua 5:13-6:27) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 23, 2021

Why one sandal? And what does "holy" mean here, and in general?

Last week, AJ (Author of Joshua) began chapter 5 by messing with us. He reminded us that all the kings of the land were terrified by the Israelites, and their hearts had melted. It was then, at that time, that Yahweh commanded Joshua to make swords. We were all excited, thinking, NOW. NOW ...read more

Sermon # 13 - Our Part In God's Plan Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 11, 2023

God is at work, but are we doing our part to fulfill God’s plan? There is also a physical realm and a spiritual realm, and the question is what are we focusing on in our lives?

Many people have a misunderstanding that everything that happens in their lives depends on God alone, and that there is nothing that they can do or accomplish with their own hands. Some others have resigned themselves to a fatalistic view that everything is controlled by God, and that therefore ...read more

Rahab: Remember The Name Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 30, 2022

Read Hebrews chapter 11 hall of faith. Where is Joshua? Where is Caleb? They did not make the hall of faith list. Rahab the harlot did. She is a great Old Testament hero of the faith.

Rahab is a harlot, a prostitute. In the footnote of my Bible it says that she is possibly the innkeeper. No, that is not a possible interpretation, and I will mention why a little later. When we come to the book of Joshua we come to a new era for the people of Israel with a new leader: Joshua. ...read more

Shawn Drake message and expanded upon) The narrative of Joshua leading the Israelites to bring down the walls of Jericho is a powerful account that demonstrates the faithfulness and might of the lord.
