Leading one's family in God's ways requires focus and resolve. With the world arrayed against us, we must proclaim with Joshua, “as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD” (Josh. 24:15). As parents, we must not only love God with all our heart, soul, and strength, and keep His commands (Deut. 6:4-5), but we must “teach them diligently to [our] children, and shall talk of them when [we] sit in [our] house, when [we] walk by the way, when [we] lie down, and when [we rise up” (Deut. 6:6-7). In this podcast, Scott Brown and Jason Dohm, joined by special guest Carlton McLeod, discuss five ways to double down on your family: (1) Identify a consistent spot in your schedule for family worship; (2) Pick a strategy for reading the Bible; (3) Squeeze more life out of your local church; (4) Have a discipleship goal for each of your children; and (5) Take one high-impact trip as a family. They then add key reasons to do so, including the fact that the Bible has put family discipleship squarely in your laps, and your role as parents is one of the greatest privileges of a lifetime.
In Joshua 24, Joshua is about to die, and he is challenging the people to make a decision to serve the LORD and Him only. He proclaims that no matter what everyone else does, he and his house will serve the LORD (v. 15). The people responded by also saying, “We will serve the LORD; for He is our God” (v. 18). But Joshua knew it is easy for the people to say something and yet not really have the love, the devotion, and the heart to follow through on their commitment. That is why he replies with this strange verse: “But Joshua said to the people, "You cannot serve the LORD, for He is a holy God. He is a jealous God; He will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins” (v. 19). Joshua probably remembered when the former generation had met the Lord at Mount Sinai, they had said, "All that the Lord has spoken we will do" (Ex. 19:8). But a few weeks later, they were worshiping a golden calf! Joshua knew that it was easy for the people to promise obedience to the Lord, but it was quite something else for them to actually do it. His stern words in Joshua 24:19 were meant to curb their overconfidence and make them look honestly into their own hearts In the Old Testament, Israel is pictured as being "married" to Jehovah, and He would not tolerate any rivals in their hearts. He is a jealous God (Ex. 20:5) and a holy God, and He could never permit them to be divided in their loyalty. Just as a husband and wife are faithful to their marriage vows and jealously guard their mate's affection, so Israel and the Lord had to be faithful to each other. Joshua warned them what would happen if they didn't get rid of their idols: They would eventually forsake the Lord, and then He would have to chasten them. They would lose all the blessings He had so graciously given them in the Promised Land. Their great need was to cleanse their hearts of allegiance to other gods and to incline their hearts only to the Lord (Josh. 24:23). If they persisted in their hidden disloyalty, God would not forgive them (Ex. 23:21) but would punish them for their sins. At least three times in this passage the people affirmed their desire to serve only the Lord (Josh. 24:16-18, 21, 24), and Joshua took them at their word. So that they wouldn't forget this solemn covenant with Jehovah, Joshua wrote it in the Book of the Law and then set up a large stone as a perpetual witness to their agreement. This is the ninth and last memorial mentioned in the Book of Joshua. There's certainly nothing unbiblical about God's people memorializing a wonderful event or a sacred decision, so long as the memorial doesn't become the focus of idolatrous worship. It's good to remember what the Lord did and how we responded, but we must never live in the past. Religious traditions can be helpful or hurtful, depending on how we use them. In the Epistle of 1 John, the Apostle John gives three tests for sonship and fellowship with the LORD. The tests of truth, obedience and love. But then he finishes the book with a warning: “My little children, keep yourselves from idols” (1 John 5:21). An idol is anything that comes between us and our love and devotion to the LORD! Has anything come between you and your love for Jesus? True service comes from a heart of love and devotion! God bless!
15 Therefore it shall come to pass, that as all the good things have come upon you which the LORD your God promised you, so the LORD will bring upon you all harmful things, until He has destroyed you from this good land which the LORD your God has given you. 16 When you have transgressed the covenant of the LORD your God, which He commanded you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed down to them, then the anger of the LORD will burn against you, and you shall perish quickly from the good land which He has given you." Again, let me thank you for your prayer for Luke. At this time, it appears that his surgery was successful and he has be upgraded to an regular pediatric room. It is a possibility that he could go home later today or tomorrow if he continues this good progress. Thanks again for all your prayers! In Joshua 23-24, Joshua is giving his last words to the leaders and the nation of Israel. In verses 1-2, he calls them together either at Shiloh or at his home in Ephraim. In verses 3-4, Joshua reminds the people what the LORD did for Israel. In verses 5-9, he reminds them what the LORD said to Israel in the Book of the Law of Moses. In verse 10, Joshua quotes the promise that God gave to Israel through Moses in his last words to Israel before he died. This shows how well Joshua knew the Word of God. He meditated on God's Word day and night (Josh. 1:8; Ps. 1:2) and hid it in his heart (Ps. 119:11). Now, in Joshua 23:11-16, Joshua reminds them what the LORD would do to Israel. The Word of God is like a two-edged sword (Heb. 4:12): If we obey it, God will bless and help us; if we disobey it, God will chasten us until we submit to Him. If we love the Lord (Josh. 23:11), we'll want to obey Him and please Him. It is so essential that we cultivate a satisfying relationship with God. In verse 14, Joshua reminded the people that God's Word never fails, whether it's the Word of promise for blessing or the Word of promise for chastening. Both are evidences of His love, for "whom the Lord loveth He chastens" (Prov. 3:11-12; Heb. 12:6). Charles Spurgeon said, "God will not allow His children to sin successfully." Moses had warned Israel against compromising with the evil nations in the land (Ex. 23:20-33; 34:10-17; Deut. 7:12-26), and Joshua reaffirmed that warning (Josh. 23:13). If Israel began to mingle with these nations, two things would happen: God would remove His blessing, and Israel would be defeated; and these nations would bring distress and defeat to Israel. Joshua used vivid words like snares, traps, scourges, and thorns to impress the Jews with the suffering they would experience if they disobeyed the Lord. The final stroke of chastening would be Israel's removal from their land to a land of exile. After all, if you want to live and worship like the Gentiles, then live with the Gentiles! This happened when God permitted Babylon to conquer Judah, destroy Jerusalem, and take thousands of the Jews into exile in Babylon. Three times in this brief address Joshua called Canaan "this good land" (vv. 13,15-16). When God called Moses at the burning bush, He promised to take Israel into a "good land" (Ex. 3:8); and Joshua and Caleb described Canaan as "a good land" after forty days of investigation (Num. 14:7). In his farewell message Moses used the phrase "good land" at least ten times (Deut. 1:25, 35; 3:25; 4:21-22; 6:18; 8:7, 10; 9:6; 11:17). The argument is obvious: Since God has given us such a good land, the least we can do is live to please Him. God bless!
Thank you so much for your prayer for Luke! He went through a very complicated surgery yesterday. They actually placed two shunts in his brain, with two tubes running down to his stomach to drain the excessive brain fluid. The surgeons believe it was successful, and we were able to spend some time with him afterwards and he appeared to be doing fine. It was obvious that he was experiencing pain from the extensive surgery, but we did get a few smiles out of him still. He had an MRI late last night to see if everything was working properly but we won't know the results until later today. Again, thank you, thank you for your prayers! In Joshua 23-24, Joshua is giving his last words to the leaders and the nation of Israel. In verses 1-2, he calls them together either at Shiloh or at his home in Ephraim. Later in Joshua 24:1, he would call them together again at Shechem for some more final words. In verses 3-4, Joshua reminds the people what the LORD did for Israel. From the day that Israel left Egypt, the Lord had fought for His people and delivered them from their enemies. He drowned the Egyptian army in the sea and then defeated the Amalekites who attacked the Jews soon after they left Egypt (Ex. 17). The Lord defeated all of Israel's enemies as the nation marched toward Canaan, and He gave His people victory over the nations in the Promised Land. This review of history reminded Israel of two great facts: Those Gentile nations were God's enemies and therefore must be Israel's enemies; and the same God who overcame the enemy in the past could help Israel overcome them in the future. God had never failed His people; and, if they would trust Him and obey His Word, He would help them completely conquer the land. "For the Lord your God is He who has fought for you" (Josh. 23:3). This is a good reminder to God's people today. As we read the Bible and see what God did in the past for those who trusted Him, it encourages us to trust Him today and face all our enemies with courage and confidence. From age to age, God may change His methods; but His character never changes, and He can be trusted. In Joshua 23:5-10, Joshua gives the people the LORD's message. The secret of Joshua's success, and therefore the reason for Israel's victories, was his devotion to the Word of God (vv. 6, 14; see 1:7-9,13-18; 8:30-35; 11:12,15; 24:26-27). He obeyed God's commandments and believed God's promises, and God worked on his behalf. But even more, his devotion to the Word of God enabled Joshua to get to know God better, to love Him, and to want to please Him. It isn't enough to know the Word of God. We must also know the God of the Word and grow in our fellowship with Him. Israel entered and conquered the land as the fulfillment of God's promise, but their enjoyment of the land depended on their obedience to the Law of the Lord. God would enable them to claim all their inheritance if they would obey Him with all their hearts. In verses 7-8, we see the importance that Israel remain a separated people and not be infected by the wickedness of the Gentile nations around them (see Ex. 34:10-17; Deut. 7:2-4). Joshua warned them that their disobedience would be a gradual thing. First, they would associate with these nations in a familiar way; then they would start discussing their religious practices; and before long Israel would be worshiping the false gods of the enemy. The Jewish men would then start marrying women from these pagan nations, and the line of separation between God's people and the world would be completely erased. Imagine the folly of worshiping the gods of the defeated enemy! All of us feel the pressures of the world around us, trying to force us to conform (Rom. 12:1-21; 1 John 2:15-17); and it takes courage to defy the crowd and stay true to the Lord (Josh. 23:7). But it also takes love for the Lord and a desire to please Him (v. 8). May the LORD give us grace today to take heed to His Word in every area of our lives!
Now in Joshua 22, we come to a very interesting incident and conflict that almost caused a war between the tribes before they hardly get settled into their inheritance because of the “great impressive altar” that the two and half tribes built on the border at the Jordan River. The word traveled quickly that the tribes east of the Jordan had erected an altar. While these two and a half tribes had been very sincere in what they did, their action was misunderstood; and the other tribes prepared for possible war. But wisely, they waited while an official delegation investigated what was going on. "He who answers a matter before he hears it, it is folly and shame to him" (Prov. 18:13). The delegation of ten princes, one from each tribe, was led by Phinehas, the son of the high priest, a man who had already proved himself courageous in defending the Law of the Lord (Num. 25; Ps. 106:30-31). It was the responsibility of the tribal leaders and the priests to investigate every situation in Israel that appeared to be a breach of the Law (Deut. 13). God had instructed the Jews to destroy the altars of the heathen nations in Canaan and not to build altars of their own. There was to be one altar of sacrifice at the one sanctuary that God had appointed (Deut. 12; Lev. 17:8-9). In Joshua 22:15-20, it's likely that Phinehas made this speech, but note that his address represented the agreement of all the tribes. Phinehas called what they had done "an act of treachery”, which means Joshua had commended these two and a half tribes for their loyalty, and now it appeared that they had proved faithless. They had “turned away” (vv. 16, 18, 23, 29), which meant they were no longer following the Lord (see v. 5). This word carries the idea of "backsliding," gradually moving away from the Lord. The strongest word used was “rebel” (vv. 16, 18-19, 22, 29), which means deliberately resisting God's will and disobeying His Law. In building an unauthorized altar, these two and a half tribes were guilty of apostasy. "For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry" (1 Sam. 15:23). From the nation's recent history Phinehas cited two serious cases of rebellion as warning to these tribes. The first was the participation of Israel in the heathen rites of the Moabites, when the men committed harlotry with the Moabite women (Josh. 22:17; Num. 25). As a result, 24,000 people died. The second was the sin of Achan after the victory at Jericho, when he deliberately took the spoils that belonged to the Lord (Josh. 22:20; see Josh. 7). His sin led to defeat at Ai and the deaths of thirty-six Jewish soldiers. It also led to his own death and that of the members of his family. This conflict between the tribes should remind us as believers that we are all apart of the “household of God”, His Church, the body of Jesus Christ, and what we do affects the whole body. Also, we shouldn't even give the appearance that we are worshipping the altars and gods of this world in our attempt to worship the One and Only True God, through Jesus Christ! Being a borderline believer can cause all kinds of conflict and mislead other believers. Think about it! God bless!

Unstoppable - Week 4 - "Are You Living Boldly For The Lord? - Josh Amstutz"
14 And He has exalted the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints-- Of the children of Israel, A people near to Him. Praise the LORD! Psalm 148 is a psalm of purest praise. It is right in the middle of the five “Hallelujah Psalms” that concludes the Book of Psalms. The Book of Psalms is a book of praise, a book of worship that takes us into the presence of God, a book that lets us express our emotions and tell God how we feel as we deal with our problems, difficulties and our enemies, especially our great enemy the devil! In this book we are reminded repeatedly that the LORD is our rock, our salvation, our refuge, our defense and our victory over all things! Psalms is a book that teaches us to pray and praise the LORD and to trust Him and His promises as we face life! Psalm 148 is a praise psalm that doesn't have a prayer, a plea, or a petition in it. It is all pure praise. It begins with a call for the heavens and everything in them to praise the LORD (vv. 1-6). It continues with the call for the earth and everything on it and in it to praise the LORD (vv. 7-13). Then it concludes with the nation of Israel and their praise for the LORD (v. 14). “And He has exalted the horn of His people”. In Scripture, a "horn" is a symbol of power and dignity, a king or a kingdom. To "take away the horn" means to deprive a nation or person of authority and prestige (Psalms 79:10; 89:17, 24; 132:17; Ezek. 29:21). When the Lord brought His people back from exile in Babylon, He "raised up a horn" for them (v. 14). This cannot refer to a king, for David's dynasty had ended with the capture of Zedekiah and the returned remnant had no king. But they did have a nation, a temple, and a priesthood, and they had preserved the sacred Word that the Lord had given them through their prophets (147:19-20). But Luke 1:68-73 gives us the right to apply this image to Jesus Christ, the Son of David, "Blessed is the Lord God of Israel, For He has visited and redeemed His people, And has raised up a horn of salvation for us In the house of His servant David, As He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets, Who have been since the world began, That we should be saved from our enemies And from the hand of all who hate us, To perform the mercy promised to our fathers And to remember His holy covenant, The oath which He swore to our father Abraham.” Jesus Christ is the only person qualified to sit on David's throne (Luke 1:30-33). "Salvation is of the Jews" (John 4:22), and the Jews are a people who are still dear to the Lord (Ex. 19:6; Num. 16:5; Deut. 4:1-8). If you read this psalm again with Jesus in mind, you can see how much greater He is than anything or anyone mentioned, for He is the Creator of all things (John 1:1-3; Col. 1:16-17). He is Captain of the hosts of the Lord (Josh. 5:14), the Sun of Righteousness (Mal. 4:2; Luke 1:78) and the Morning Star (Rev. 22:16). When ministering here on earth, He demonstrated power over storms (Matt. 8:23-27; 14:23-33), trees (Matt. 21:18-22), and wild and domestic animals (Mark 1:13; 11:1-3). He is far above the angels (Heb. 1; Eph. 1:18-23 and 3:10-11). He revealed the Father's name (John 17:6) and glorified that name in all He was, said, or did (John 1:14; 2:11; 11:4, 40; 12:28; 14:13; 17:4). In all things, Jesus Christ has the preeminence (Col. 1:18). Today, we should give Him first place in every aspect of our lives! Yes, Jesus “is the praise of all His saints!” God bless!

Matthew 3:1-17
As we keep heading on in our series in the 10 commandments, Josh Irving helps us see that honouring the name of the Lord doesn't just involve what we do (and don't) say, but shapes our entire lives. This talk was given at Senior High on Sunday 7 May 2023.
While driving down a two-lane road in rural northern Michigan, I looked in my rearview mirror only to see flashing red lights. When the police officer pulled me over, he asked if I knew why. I honestly did not. He informed me that the speed limit had lowered to 35 mph because the road was approaching a small town. Unfortunately, my ignorance did not get me off the hook. Today’s reading describes the sin offering (see also Lev. 6:24–30). This offering was provided for two different situations, for unintentional sins or for ceremonial uncleanness (5:2–4). These laws reflect several important spiritual principles. First, the more responsibility a person had, the greater the consequences of their sin for the community. This principle is reflected in the size of the required offering of a high priest or leader in the community compared with a common person. Leaders have a greater potential to lead others astray and so are held to a higher standard (James 3:1). Second, the whole nation could be guilty of unintentional sin (Lev. 4:13). This may be difficult for those of us in a culture influenced by Western individualism to understand. But it is possible for a group of people to sin corporately, for example, Israel’s covenant with Gibeon without consulting the Lord (Josh. 9:14). Third, everyone needed to have their sin atoned through sacrifice, not just the leaders. To make provision for this, God accepted smaller offerings from those who had less means (Lev. 5:11–13). It was never about the size of the offering, but what it represented. The ritual had three steps: laying one’s hands on the offering, which included confession of sin (4:29; 16:21); presentation of the sacrifice; and receiving forgiveness (4:31). >> The same pattern holds true today. We can be forgiven if we confess our sins (1 John 1:9). The sacrifices in Leviticus point forward to Jesus, the once-for-all sacrifice for sin (Heb. 10:14). Spend time in confession today.

We kick off our new series by examining just what is a household. We look at what Joshua meant when he said, ‘as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD’ (Josh 24:15). Lastly, we see just how important households are in God’s grand story.
Three elements are striking in Joshua 5.(1) Circumcision is now carried out on all the males that were born during the years of wilderness wandering. At one level, this is rather surprising: How come they weren’t done as the boys were born? In many instances the multitude stayed in one place for long periods of time, doubtless developing community life. What prevented them from obeying this unambiguous covenantal stipulation?There have been many guesses, but the short answer is that we do not know. More important, in this context, is the fact that the rite is carried out now universally. It thereby stands as a decisive turning point, a symbol-laden community-wide affirmation of the covenant as the people stand on the verge of entering the Promised Land. Egypt is now behind; the promised rest awaits. “Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you” (Josh. 5:9).(2) The manna stops (Josh. 5:10-12). From now on the people will draw their nourishment from “the produce of Canaan.” This, too, was a dramatic signal that the days of wandering were over, and the fulfillment of the promise for a new land was beginning to unfold before their eyes. The change must have been both frightening and exciting, especially to an entire generation that had never known life without the security of manna.(3) In the opening chapters of this book, Joshua experiences a number of things that mark him out, both in his own mind and in the mind of the people, as the legitimate successor to Moses. This chapter ends with one such marker. Doubtless the most dramatic one before this chapter has been the crossing of the Jordan River — a kind of miraculous reenactment of the crossing of the Red Sea (Josh. 3-4). Quite apart from providing an efficient way to move the multitudes across the river, the personal dimension is made explicit: “That day the LORD exalted Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they revered him all the days of his life, just as they had revered Moses” (Josh. 4:14 — though the last clause must be judged just a little tongue in cheek).But now, there is another step: Joshua encounters a “man” who appears to be some sort of angelic apparition. He is a warrior, a “commander of the army of the LORD” (Josh. 5:14). On the one hand, this serves to strengthen Joshua’s faith that the Lord himself is going before him in the military contests that lie ahead. But more: the scene is in some respects reminiscent of Moses at the burning bush (Ex. 3:5): “The place where you are standing is holy ground.” However unique these circumstances, we too must have leaders accustomed to standing in the presence of holiness.

Back In The Groove This episode Lord Josh is back to talk about the resurgence in the popularity of vinyl. We discuss our thoughts on the trend. (Is it just a fad?) Is it really better? We also talk about some records we really enjoy, what we would like to find, and what is our holy grail. Listen up for a groovy good time.
A Fork In The Road Our plan was to talk about music formats specifically the resurgence of Vinyl, but as usual we go off on a tangent and end up talking instead about Twilight. So we actually talk about the Twilight movies and how they were actually good, as well as a little not so good for the careers of those involved. Thank you to Lord Josh for coming in to guest host. We should go ahead and make him a permanent addition to our show. What do you think???
2/24/19 (PM)
What Else Are You Looking Forward To? Lord Josh returns as we finish our discussion on what we are looking forward to in this the year of our lord 2019. This episode we focus on movies and TV shows. What are you excited about seeing?
What Are You Looking Forward To? For our first episode of 2019 Lord Josh joins us as we discuss what we are looking forward to in the realms of Video Games, and Music. We also discuss plans on how to make the show better.
Good Things Come To Those Who Wait!!! We are back with the annual Halloween episode. Lord Josh is back filling in for Sir Spencer this week. On this All-Hallows Eve, we open with a little history of Halloween, do you know why you put out Jack-O'-Lanterns? Then we discuss fear. Is it good or is it bad? What are we afraid of? We also discuss some horror video games. Finally if you could place the F bomb in a children's movie what would it be and where would it go? Blessed Samhain Everyone.
In the last moments of his life, Joshua reaffirms his total devotion to God by making this declaration to Israel, “as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD" (Josh 24:15; see also Joshua 1:7). We see in Joshua a picture of God who is worthy of our all. How can we live a radically devoted life? What does it look like to choose God and not idols?
The Worst Of The Worst, Yeah Yeah Yeah we know we have slacked off in putting out this episode, but it really did take 2 months to put it together. Lots of balls in the air and lots of schedules to work around.
