About this episode

Rev. Dale Rose discusses the importance of staying close to God and persevering in faith as the Hebrews prepare to enter the Promised Land.

As the Hebrews stand at the edge of the River Jordan, they are about to enter the Promised Land to receive their inheritances. Joshua has words of challenge and warning for them. He tells them to “take good care…. to love the Lord your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments….to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.” The people would face many temptations, but the key was staying close to God. They were to persevere in their faith, and to learn the lesson of endurance. On this Pentecost Sunday, we are called to finish the race in the power of God’s Spirit.
