What does the book of Joshua teach us about God’s purposes, and how should Christians approach its challenging passages? On this episode of Sound Truth Interviews, host Adam Miller welcomes David Firth, author of The Message of Joshua.
Firth’s commentary invites readers to look beyond the battles and consider Joshua’s place in the larger story of God’s mission—a story that finds its ultimate focus in Jesus Christ. His work addresses difficult questions about violence, explores what it means to belong to God’s people, and considers how this ancient book continues to speak to Christians today. ivpress.com
