Old Testament Heroes: Joshua, Week 4

This year in FamilyQuest we’ll be looking at some Old Testament heroes of the faith. We’ll see how God took flawed human beings and accomplished great things while showing many, including us, just who He is. These famous heroes faced many hard choices and had to trust God to do miraculous things. We pray that as you study these real, live heroes your families will be encouraged that you, too, can trust God to do the big things that seem impossible to us.

During this unit we will be learning about Joshua. Joshua was the man chosen to follow Moses as the leader of the Israelites because he believed God's promise to lead them to their new land, even when that land looked impossible to take. Through trust in God, obedience, and choosing God over all the other things around him, Joshua became one of the best leaders the Israelites ever had.

One of the instructions the Israelites received in Deuteronomy was to write God's words on their doorposts (Deut. 6:9.) One way we do that is to display scripture on our walls. During this unit, each family was able to make a wall hanging of our memory verse for their own homes. Check out these ideas and see if your family can come up with a way to display this month's memory verse, Joshua 24:15, that you can use as a gift this Christmas!
