God Gives His People Rest

Joshua 11:1-12:24

August 6, 2023 • Pastor Justin Keogh • Joshua 11, Joshua 12

We continue our series in Joshua, which details God’s faithfulness to his promises, as he brings Israel into their inheritance in the land of Canaan. The conquest of Canaan is completed in Joshua chapter 11, as God gives his people victory, rest, and the promised land as their possession. The summaries in chapters 11 and 12 highlight God’s faithfulness to all of his promises, and point to the future rest God’s people will receive in Christ.

God's Faithfulness from Beginning to End

September 3, 2023 • Pastor Justin Keogh • Joshua 24

Today we finish our series in Joshua, where we have seen that God has been faithful from the beginning to the end. At the end of his life, Joshua calls Israel to serve the Lord wholeheartedly because of God’s gracious work on their behalf. God has been faithful, and the question remains: Will God’s people remain faithful, or will they return to the worship of idols?

Be Very Careful, Therefore, To Love the Lord

August 27, 2023 • Pastor Russ Collins • Joshua 23

We continue our series in Joshua, which details God’s faithfulness to his promises as he brings Israel into their inheritance in the land of Canaan. Over 20 years have passed since the events of the previous chapter. Joshua is close to death and summons the leaders of Israel to share some final words of wisdom and concern for the people he loves. Words that are relevant to us.

(Almost) War Between Brothers

August 20, 2023 • Pastor Marco Ribeiro • Joshua 22

We continue our series in Joshua, which details God’s faithfulness to his promises, as he brings Israel into their inheritance in the land of Canaan. After the war is supposedly over, nine and a half tribes get ready to go to war against their brothers over the threat of idolatry. Chapter 22 emphasizes the importance of corporate solidarity, and God’s faithfulness in keeping his people together.
