On this week’s episode, Pastor Jim Thomas joins Raechel and Amanda for Week 2 in the book of Joshua, covering stories from the sobering tale of Achan’s disobedience to the miraculous pausing of the sun. Against the backdrop of this narrative, they discuss God’s sovereignty, holiness, faithfulness and what our response to His instructions should look like. Pastor Jim also gives us a helpful framework for understanding hard-to-read verses—the ones you’d think twice about embroidering on a pillow!
