Messianic Apologetics editor John McKee surveys the Book of Joshua from a Messianic perspective.

God's promises are easy to celebrate when we see them fulfilled, but they are often hardest to trust while we're waiting for them. In Joshua 11, Pastor Jon reminds us that God always does what He says He will do. As Israel finally steps into the Promised Land after generations of waiting, we see that God's faithfulness gives us confidence to follow His plan, purpose to participate in His work, and peace as we trust His timing. Because God keeps His promises, we can take our next step in obedience knowing that He has already gone before us.

Pastor Jonathan Simons The Book of Joshua; Part III Before The Walls Fall

IIt's easy to believe that if something feels true to us, it must be true altogether. But feelings alone were never meant to guide our lives. In this week's message from Joshua 10, Pastor Jordan calls us back to the unchanging truth of God's Word. While experiences may change from person to person, God's truth remains steady and trustworthy through every season.

Moses could get Israel to the Promised Land, but he couldn't get them in. To cross the Jordan, Israel needed a new leader with a familiar name: Joshua. Discover why the transition from the Law to Grace is the only way to claim your divine inheritance. Summary: In this episode, we study the Book of Joshua. We move beyond the battles and the trumpets to find the deep spiritual transformation required to stop wandering and start inheriting. Filling the Shoes of a Giant: We analyze the transition from Moses to Joshua—and from Peter to Jesus—exploring how God stays with the successor just as He was with the predecessor. Crossing the Jordan: We look at the "dry ground" miracle at the Jordan River and how the priests had to step into the water before it parted. Strange Strategies: We discuss the "foolish" tactics used at Jericho. Why does God ask us to do small and simple things—like family prayer or scripture study—that seem unrelated to the "walls" we are trying to bring down? The Valley of Achor: We look at the cautionary tale of Achan and how "one man's sin" can affect an entire community, and how God turns our "valleys of trouble" into "doors of hope." Choose You This Day: We conclude with Joshua's final plea at Shechem. We learn that our obedience lasts only as long as our memory, and why we must choose—every single day—whom we will serve. Call-to-Action: Joshua told the people that the stones of the altar had "heard" their promises. What "witnesses" have you set up in your life to remind you of your covenants?

Scott Esplin reflects on Joshua's calling to succeed Moses and the Lord's promise, “As I was with Moses, so I will be with thee.” This essay explores how faith in God's constancy helps us move beyond comparison and find courage in our own callings.

Following Jesus isn't just about surrendering the big moments of life; it's about inviting him into every decision we make. In this week's message from Joshua 9, we see how easy it is to rely on our own judgment, experience, and understanding instead of seeking the Lord's direction. Through Israel's deception by the Gibeonites, we're reminded that spiritual warfare often begins with subtle compromise and self-reliance. But even in failure, God's grace is still at work. Pastor Jon challenges us to trust God with every area of our lives, remember that our past doesn't disqualify us from future purpose, and boldly surrender our decisions to the Lord who leads us faithfully.

The Book of Joshua

The Christian life is not about trying harder to appear righteous; it's about surrendering our hearts fully to God. In this week's message from Joshua 7–8, Pastor Brandon reminds us that hidden sin always has consequences, but also that Jesus has already overcome our sin through the cross. Because of what Christ has done, we are invited to live lives marked by devotion, obedience, and trust that God's plan is better than anything this world can offer.

Control can feel like security, especially when life feels unpredictable. Sometimes, that instinct is rooted in responsibility. But sometimes, it reveals a deeper struggle to trust God. Scripture doesn't call us to manage every outcome, but to surrender to the One who holds it all. In this week's message from Joshua 2 and 6, we see how God meets us in our surrender and rewrites our story. When we trust His character, we'll stop gripping for control and start living in the freedom of His plan.
