This Sunday: “Be Very Careful to Love the Lord Your God”

Dear CrossPointe,

This Sunday we are taking a break from Romans and will be in Joshua 23. In this portion of Scripture Joshua gives his final address to the leaders of Israel. As such, he shares his desire for the people as they go into the future without him. What’s his desire? Joshua wants them to see how abundantly faithful God has been to all of his promises and to be spurred to faithful obedience. His desire is really a warning to us all—our obedience should be as real as God’s faithfulness. I encourage you to read through the chapter a few times and prepare yourself for our time of worship together.

I look forward to sitting under the Word of God with you soon.

In Christ,

Tyler
