In Joshua 18, seven tribes had witnessed God’s faithfulness, received His promises, and seen Him subdue the land—yet they still hadn’t moved forward. Joshua confronted their delay with a pointed question: “How long will you put off going in to take possession of the land?” Check out this week’s message as we consider the difference...

“Close enough” works for horseshoes—but not for obedience. It’s easy to follow God until obedience becomes inconvenient, costly, or difficult. Check out this week’s message as we continue our study in Joshua and discover why God calls us not to settle for less than wholehearted obedience.

You’re 85 years old! Someone made a promise to give you something four decades earlier. Would you still be waiting for it?

Check out this week’s message as we continue our...

Check out this week’s message as we explore Mark 1:16–20 and discover what it means to follow Jesus—and help others follow Him too.

If you were asked to name your favorite chapter in Joshua, chances are chapter 12 wouldn’t make the cut. But Joshua 12 is more than just a long list of 33 ancient kings with hard-to-pronounce names. It is a trophy case of God’s faithfulness to Israel. Check out this week’s message as we discover why...

Have you ever wondered if God truly keeps every promise He makes? As we conclude Joshua’s military campaigns in Joshua 11:16-23, we’ll discover that not one promise God made to Israel failed.

When life feels overwhelming, it’s easy to count your problems instead of God’s promises. In Joshua 11, Israel faces its greatest enemy yet—but God reminds them that victory isn’t found in bigger and better weapons. It’s found in trusting and obeying Him. Check out this week’s message as we continue our study of the book...

As a body, we are deeply committed to living in and under the transforming grace of God, knowing that He accepts us not by anything we have done, but by the pure gift of grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. That grace is not static — it is living and active, having rescued us...

“You can run, but you can’t hide.” We’ve all heard that phrase before. In Joshua 10, five defeated kings discover just how true it is. They flee the battlefield and hide in a cave, hoping to escape judgment. Instead, the cave becomes a monument to their defeat. Centuries later, another tomb would tell a very...

“Sometimes the hardest battles aren’t the ones we choose—they’re the ones that come because we chose to do the right thing.” In Joshua 10, Israel finds itself under attack simply because it honored its word. Yet what follows is one of the most dramatic displays of God’s power in Scripture. Check out this week’s message...

Most people are happy to receive advice. Advice is optional—we can take it or leave it. But authority is different. Authority confronts us. It demands surrender. And one of the greatest temptations in modern Christendom is to treat God’s Word like helpful advice instead of absolute authority. Joshua 8 confronts that mindset head-on and all...

We typically don’t like to talk about the wrath and judgment of God. After all, God is love! But we cannot have one without the other. God is not the sum of His parts. All that is in God IS God. We cannot truly appreciate His divine mercy without considering His divine wrath. Check out...

“The steps of a man are established by the Lord, when he delights in his way; though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the Lord upholds his hand.” – Psalm 37:23-24 Sin and failure can ruin us, but they do not define us. Check out this week’s message as we unpack how...

“The most exhausting thing in the world is not hard work — it’s keeping secrets.” In Joshua 7, a man named Achan learned the hard way that the God who brought down the walls of Jericho sees everything — including what’s hidden beneath the floor of your tent. Check out this week’s message as we...

This week in Joshua 7:1-15, we see that Israel’s greatest threat does not come from without but rather from within. Check out this week’s message as we consider the seriousness of sin, the holiness of God, and the sobering consequences of internal corruption among God’s people.

“Grace isn’t a reward for the worthy—it’s a rescue for the ruined.” As Jericho falls and judgment sweeps the city, one woman walks out alive.

“God told them to win a battle by walking, waiting, and worshiping—no swords, just trust.” It sounds foolish… until the walls fall.

“They wanted a crown—but He came for a cross.” On Palm Sunday, the crowd cheered for the wrong reasons—and honestly, we often do the same. We want Jesus to fix our problems, but He came to do something more important. Check out this week’s message as we follow the King to the middle cross and...

“God does not exist to make much of us—we exist to make much of Him.” That truth becomes unmistakably clear when Joshua encounters the Commander of the Lord’s army just outside the walls of Jericho.
