What's Buried Under Your Tent?

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jul 24, 2017

Like Achan we may think our sin will not be uncovered--even by God. But we need to remember that nothing can be hidden from God and the guilt of our sins still stands. This account leads us to confess our sins and turn in faith to Christ forgiveness!

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 11, 2021
