God Gives His Children a Home

This story follows Joshua, who takes over as leader of the Israelites after Moses' death. With God's guidance, Joshua leads the people into the Promised Land. They face their first challenge at Jericho, a fortified city, but God gives them an unusual strategy to march around the city for seven days. On the seventh day, the walls miraculously collapse, and the Israelites claim victory. The story emphasizes God's faithfulness and Joshua's courageous leadership while foreshadowing a greater leader, Jesus, who would come from Rahab’s lineage to bring ultimate salvation.
