The Grand Story of Scripture | Session 5: The Kingdom's Perilous Beginnings (Joshua-Judges)


Listen Later

n this episode, Pastor Steven Hiller takes us through the dramatic rise and fall of Israel’s early Kingdom, from the triumphs of Joshua to the chaos of Judges.

Israel finally enters the Promised Land, but the victory doesn’t last long. Through stories like Rahab’s redemption, the fall of Jericho, and the tragic cycles of disobedience in Judges, we see a sobering truth: God’s people can’t keep His covenant on their own. Yet even in their rebellion, God remains faithful to His promises.

How can a holy God show mercy to a sinful people? What does this tension between the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants reveal about our need for a Savior? Pastor Steven helps us see how these ancient stories point forward to the Greater Joshua who will lead His people into a better Kingdom.
