We’re about to study one of the most bizarre and sobering stories of the entire Bible- a story that brings home the truth of how deadly even one small sin can be.
This story yields 5 important spiritual principles:
• God expects full commitment to our relationship with Him
• The corporate effects of individual sin
• There is more to repentance than an apology
• Nothing is hidden from God
• The cost of sin
Review and Reflection
What would God find buried inside our tents? Are there things you are harboring or tolerating or hiding in the secret part of your life? If so, then please let the truths of Achan’s life wake you up to the urgency of doing something about it. Expose it to God, renounce it, and be done with it. God stands ready to help you right now.

06-28-20 WHOLEHEARTED FOLLOWER OF GOD
June 28, 2020 • Pastor George Gasperson
In today’s message, an 85-year-old man named Caleb steps forward to claim a promise God made to him 45 years ago. God made this promise because Caleb followed God wholeheartedly. We don’t have to be a Bible hero to follow God wholeheartedly. We just learn how to view the world through eyes of faith. We keep on trusting and believing and obeying no matter what happens, and we remember that the God we hold on to is more faithful and powerful than we can understand.
06-21-20 FINAL VICTORY
June 21, 2020 • Pastor George Gasperson
Israel is now in firm control of the central region of the Promised Land, and in today’s message, they subdue the remaining northern and southern regions. Embedded in the larger story are events that expose valuable spiritual truths. Spiritual victories are won when God sets the stage and people respond in faith and obedience.
