Let me set the stage for you. Israel has come once again to the borders of the Promised Land. Their fathers stood in this same spot 40 years before and refused to cross over and possess the land. Fear, frustration, sin, and brokenness kept them out of Canaan. For forty years this troop of merry fools marched and wandered in circles through the desert just a few miles from the land that flowed with milk and honey. They wandered until all of those who had rejected Gods invitation died in the wilderness – the last of whom was their great leader Moses. Now they come again to the doorstep of Canaan but a new leader has risen among them and his name is Joshua. Chapter 1
