One the most memorable narratives of the Old Testament is Joshua’s conquest of Jericho. It is a witness to the miraculous power of God to overcome obstacles.

6. Decision Making (Joshua 9). Pastor Robb Williams

Israel had a quick and horrible failure, then another success, followed by the failure of chapter 9. Give them some credit for creativity though, for this time they failed in a new and unique way and they left us with a great bad example for decision making.
