The Gospel According To Joshua Part 2

The Gospel According To Joshua

In the second part of this series, “The Gospel According To Joshua”, Pastor Jason looks at the two pairs of twelve stones, one group moved out of, and the other into the Jordan. Twelve men, one appointed from each tribe, carried out a smooth stone on their shoulder out of the river. Joshua commanded for them to be set in the camp for a testimony to future generations.

Twelve men carried stones, but the Word explain Joshua, a type and shadow of Jesus, carried twelve stones himself into the Jordan. A visible memorial and an invisible memorial, which is a type and shadow of baptism. You see the believer going into the water in baptism, but what you don’t see is, all of our sins being cast away, it’s far more than a physical act.

Authentic Conversations: Graduation Sunday Student Class

May 22, 2024 • Pastor Jason Potter, Pastor Brittany Potter

This week’s Authentic Conversations focuses on the “Graduation Sunday: Student Class”. Pastor Jason and Pastor Brittany discuss moving forward and upward. As Pastor Jason shared with the students Sunday, part of this is seeking God’s direction through His Word. In this process, we don’t study the Bible to make something fit, but to study to reveal what’s there. If you want the Bible to really do a work in you, you have to be a true seeker for it to be revealed to you. We should pray for insight and clarity before we open our Bible to read, so that God’s Spirit can guide us in our reading. In searching for an answer, along with prayer, we can look for those in God’s Word who had a similar situation. No matter our age, we all are students, we’re still learning, and as we seek more of Him, He will add to us in ways beyond what we could ever imagine!

Graduation Sunday: Student Class

May 19, 2024 • Pastor Jason Potter

On this special Graduation Sunday, Pastor Jason wanted to have one more “Student Class” with the graduates. In it he points them to Solomon as he became king, and the fact that like him, they and all of us are taking our next steps both forward and upward. Forward because we are about to go further than we’ve ever gone before. Upward because we are about to be doing better than we’ve ever done before. It’s progress that is locked stepped with excellence. Solomon recognized that he was God’s servant, that God was in control. Second he told God he was willing to accept whatever He would have him do, but he needed the right mind set and the right skill set. Third, he knew that the overarching purpose of life is serving those that he has been designed to serve. For us our priority is not what we’re going to do, but Who we’re going to serve. Life is a series of steps, but every step is for us not against us, designed to graduate into what God wants us to be.
