God Who Fights My Battles - Joshua

Second Baptist Church - Houston, TX | The book of Joshua marks the beginning of an entirely new era for the Israelites. They are situated on a nation-wide precipice of newness: a new leader, a new land, a new generation. Joshua's main message is not necessarily new, but it is contextualized in such a way so that it particularly resonates in seasons of newness. The book—although written in historical narrative form—artfully uses comparison and contrast between characters and battles to drive home this main theme: God fights for you, so simply trust and obey.
