Sermon 6/6/2021

Josephus the historian wrote the following about Joshua:  “Joshua lived forty years in Egypt and forty years in the wilderness.  He had endured hardship, privation, fought God’s enemies, and faced a false report in the wilderness.  He had seen the giants. After eighty years of faithful service, God spoke to him and placed him in a place of great leadership.”  He found success in all He did for the Lord.

This inspirational sermon about the life of Joshua focuses on several key character traits:

• He was an ordinary man.
• He was a dedicated and determined man.
• He was a courageous man.
• He was a decisive man.
• He was a faithful and loyal man.
