Conquer - Commemorate - Chose

JOSHUA 24:1-33 CAPSULATES:

• THE COVENANTS BETWEEN MAN AND GOD
• THE “MORE THAN” CONQUEROR CHARACTER OF GOD’S PEOPLE
• THE COMMEMORATION AND MEMORIALS TO ENSURE THE CONTINUATION (OR PERPETUALNESS) OF THE STORY-TELLING OF THE WORKS/WORD OF GOD (STORY OF JESUS)
• THE COMMAND TO “CHOOSE” WHO YOU WILL SERVE
• THE DECLARATION OF THE LEADER THAT HE “WILL” SERVE GOD
• THE TALE OF THE 12 TOMORROW IS NEEDED TODAY – WHO ARE YOU TELLING?
• THE QUESTION IS BEGGING TO BE ANSWERED – “WHAT DO THESE STONES MEAN TO YOU?”
• “WHERE ARE THESE STONES?” “HOW ARE THESE STONES DOING?” “WHY ARE THERE STONES?” “WHO ARE THESE STONES?” “WHO IS THE STONE?”
• IF WE ARE TOO BUSY TO HEAR AND TELL THE STORIES…THEN WE ARE TOO BUSY!
• STORIES COME FROM SUFFERING AND ACTION – COURAGE, CRISIS, AND CHRIST!
