Lesson 12: God is Faithful! (Joshua 23)

Have you ever started a new project and were uncertain how it would turn out? The new law students at Regent University School of Law, where I teach, are like that. No doubt this is true for all new law students. Will they succeed in becoming lawyers? What kind of law will they practice? Will they be successful? This week our study is one of the final speeches of Joshua. He is now old. Like the first-year law students, he once had a new project of conquering the land promised to them by God. It was a success and now Joshua has important advice about what he has learned so the Hebrews can continue to have successful lives. Let's listen in and learn about how to be successful!
