About this episode

Pastor Dirk discusses the challenges faced by Joshua as he steps into leadership after Moses and encourages listeners to gather God's people.

Who would want to fill the sandals of Moses? Few would be foolish enough to try. Joshua was no fool, but God called him to do the impossible, to lead a people that frequently exasperated his powerful predecessor. What could possibly give him the courage to face this new and nearly impossible challenge? The Point: In changing and uncertain times, God calls us to continue His work of gathering His people. Next Steps: Encourage three people this week as they work to gather God’s people.
