    Whack-A-Mole

     | 179 views

    Joshua 5 shows God dismantling the inner battles that keep resurfacing, calling us from self-struggle to surrender on holy ground where victory begins.

    INTRODUCTION — THE GAME There’s a sound most of us can recognize instantly — even if it has been decades since we heard it. A ding… a buzz… a wooden mallet striking rubber. And somewhere deep inside the memory, a child’s frustration mixed with sudden triumph. Whack-A-Mole. You remember the game. ...read more

    Intelligence is a gift, but it was never meant to carry the weight of the soul. Jesus invites thoughtful people to stop standing alone and abide.

    The Honest Starting Point Thoughtful people do not arrive at faith lightly. They arrive carrying questions, experiences, and scars earned through paying attention. Discernment was not learned in a classroom alone; it was learned in rooms where trust failed, promises collapsed, and someone had to ...read more

    The people of God are engaged in a great battle. If we will engage the enemy and advance the cause of Christ, we need to heed the commands issued in this text.

    “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” The Christian Faith is a woman’s religion; and I’m glad this is so! Historically, women were excluded from religion. In the pagan religions extant at the time the Master presented Himself as a ...read more

    Divine rewards demand that we conduct our lives according to God's rules provided in His Word.

    I consider the initial verses of this chapter to be among the most significant verses of the book. They are, as well, perhaps the most neglected verses of the missive which Paul wrote. I confess that I am ploughing quite a narrow furrow in these expositions. Note that the Apostle appeals to ...read more
