Week 7 | Faith Challenged
Jan 17, 2024 • Matthew Allen, Rich Walker
The Book of Joshua is more than just a historical account of the events of the nation of Israel. Throughout its pages are the principles by which God expects us to live. The first six chapters repeatedly stress that the receiving of Canaan (and first Jericho), was a gift to be received. However, alongside that great gift came a covenant responsibility for loyalty and faithfulness to God. As we will see here in Joshua 7, when the covenant is violated, serious consequences come.
