We are kicking off a four-week sermon series, "The Living God Is Among You", in the book of Joshua . This morning, Pastor Heather is preaching from Joshua 1:1-9 in a message titled "Be Strong and Courageous". After forty years of wandering in the desert, the Israelites are about to enter the Promised Land, but fear and anxiety abound. How will God meet them during these critical moments on their journey as a people, and what word does God have for the Creston Church community? May the Spirit move in our hearts as together we pursue the Living God.
