403: Pray Audacious Prayers Jan 05, 2026

Show notes

Hi, friend. Happy New Year!

If you’re resolving to pray more this year — and shouldn’t we all? — this episode is for you.

There is a remarkable story in Joshua chapter 10. While in battle, the Hebrews needed more daylight. Joshua asks God to stop the sun from setting, and God does. Verse 14 says, “God took orders from a human voice.” How’s that for a reminder that God listens to our prayers?

402: Voices, Choices, and Consequences Dec 22, 2025

Show notes

Every day we choose who and what to listen to. There are hundreds of channels on our televisions, millions of people sharing their opinions online. But only one voice will guide you to the Promised Land. Choose to trust the voice of God.

Christmas Bonus: A Willing Heart Dec 18, 2025

Show notes

Merry Christmas, friend! I pray this season brings you joy and peace and the hope that Christ, who came as a baby, is coming again.

401: The Danger of Disbelief Dec 15, 2025

Show notes

Hello, friend. Thank you for joining me for another Encouraging Word.

What does trust have to do with greed? According to Joshua chapter 7, quite a lot. This passage reminds us that looking for security in anything or anyone other than God will always let us down.

400: Walking Circles Around Jericho Dec 08, 2025

Show notes

Today’s episode brings us to a familiar story in the Bible. Maybe you’ve sung the old song about Joshua fighting the battle of Jericho. But this story is about more than the Hebrews defeating the Canaanites. This is a story about fighting from a place of victory to defeat the strongholds in your life.

399: Call on Your Commander Dec 01, 2025

Show notes

You know what it's like to face difficulty. You have before and you will again. You may be, right now, facing a challenge so great that a solution feels impossible. If that sounds familiar, I encourage you to follow the example of Joshua — before you go into battle, call on your Commander.

398: Don't Forget to Remember Nov 24, 2025

Show notes

Hello, friend. I hope you’re doing well. This week we celebrate Thanksgiving, so I think today’s episode is especially fitting.

In Joshua 4, just as many of us will do this week with family and friends, Joshua and the Hebrew people were instructed to pause and remember all God had done for them. And that act of gratitude prepared them for what came next.

397: Cross This Jordan Nov 17, 2025

Show notes

Hello, friend. I hope you’re well today.

The last few episodes, we’ve seen Joshua and the Israelites face one obstacle after another. Well this week is a biggie – crossing the Jordan River. But this story isn’t just about getting from one side of a river to the other. It’s about how God delivers us from what stands between us and him.

396: It’s Ok if You’re Not Ok Nov 10, 2025

Show notes

Hi, friend. I hope you’re having a good day.

Today’s episode brings us to one of the unlikeliest heroes of the Bible—Rahab. Maybe you know her story. Maybe you relate to her story. Nothing to lose, pulled from the bottom of the pit and pressed into service for God’s plan. God used her because she trusted him. May we all have that in common with Rahab.
