In a world of upward mobility, choose downward servility.

I think we have such a crown jewel in the forgiveness of God, and it changes people's lives.

When a Christian stops growing, help is needed. If you are the same Christian you were a few months ago, be careful.

The Promised Land, for many people, though, is something that's far off in the future. People are saved, but they don't feel victory. They feel like they're in a wilderness and they're wandering. And so this book of Joshua gives us a picture of how we can come out of the wilderness in our own spiritual lives and enter into a season of victory.
