After the victory at Jericho, Israel expects an easy win at Ai—but the soldiers run away and Joshua falls before God, devastated. God reveals the reason: someone has disobeyed by taking things from Jericho that were meant to be destroyed. By God’s choice, the tribes and families come forward until Achan is named. He confesses that he hid silver, gold, and clothes under his tent. Israel removes the sin from the camp, and then—following God’s new plan—they return to Ai and win. This sobering story shows that hidden choices can hurt many people, and that God calls His people to honest hearts and obedient lives. 

Talk about it:

• Why did Israel lose the first battle at Ai?
• What did Achan take, and why was hiding it such a big problem?
• How did God help Joshua after the people obeyed?
• What is one honest choice you can make this week, even if it’s hard?
