The Story: Chapter 7 - The Battle Begins

Whose side is God on? In week seven of The Story, Pastor Justin Sturgeon of First Christian Church follows Joshua across the Jordan and into the promised land. Outside Jericho, Joshua meets a stranger with a drawn sword and asks him, “Are you for us or for our enemies?” The answer is one word he did not expect. A Canaanite prostitute ends up inside God’s people. An Israelite with the right family tree ends up outside. The sun stands still to rescue the people who tricked Israel. And Pastor Justin takes on the book’s hardest question: the violence of the conquest. At the end of his life, Joshua asks a whole nation to choose.
