God promises Ancient Israel physical blessings and curses, based on whether they obey or disobey him. What blessings does God promise Christians? Every spiritual blessing in Christ because Christ was cursed for us so we could be blessed.

Who would have thought pride could be so dangerous? On the edge of the Promised Land God's people are about to lose it all.

How do we love God in both the good times and the bad? What do we need to avoid the serious dangers associated with both success and failure?

The same God who hates evil in the Promised Land of Deuteronomy hates it today. As followers of Jesus, what does it mean to fight sin now that Jesus has died for sin and will return to judge?

The greatest love of all is the love God has shown us in Jesus. Now our greatest joy is to love him with our all and raise the next generation to do the same. What helps us and what hinders us from doing this?

Is Christianity harmful? Some would say it's dangerous. We take a look at the famous 10 commandments - are they good for us or will they do us harm?

"God's people are on the edge of the promised land and Moses warns them - stay faithful!

God blesses those who keep his commands - so get rid of anything that will get in the way of wholehearted devotion to the Lord."

Shockingly, God commands his people to engage in Holy War and so they kill an entire nation. We can make sense of this only if we understand God's sovereignty (he is God and we are not), justice (he fairly judges evil and that's good), patience (he shows extraordinary patience to an evil nation) and mercy (he saves Ancient Israel who didn't deserve it). Christians deal with the same sovereign God who has shown us justice, patience & mercy as Jesus died for us.

God's people on the cusp of entering the Promised Land and despite God's goodness to them fail to trust him. There's a lot here we learn about God and ourselves, as well as a sober warning.

We can trust God that it’s good & noble to lead a Church - noble because leaders guard and grow the church in as they model, teach & govern, and noble because God deeply treasures the Church
