Joshua 24:15

This week, Jordan led us and we learned about Joshua 24:15. If you were unable to be there, Tabitha also saved the extra handouts and put them in the class attendance box..so you can grab one of them next week if you want!

“As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord”

Key Passage: Joshua 24

vv. 1: What is the context for this passage?

vv. 14-15: What is Joshua saying?

vv. 19-20: Why does Joshua say that they are not able to serve God? What does Joshua mean when he says that God will not forgive them?

Application

-What can we learn from this story? What practical steps can we take in our marriages?

-Do we take time to remember what the Lord has done for us? How have you done this in your marriages? (Marriage timeline)

-Who do we serve? Who are the possible idols in our lives?

Homework: Complete a marriage timeline of what the Lord has done so far and pray over how you will implement a plan to serve the Lord in your house.

Just as a reminder (and I'll try to remember to post this again later in the week), but next Sunday there will be prayer in our classroom at 8:45AM! So be there if you can!

I hope you're all having a wonderful Monday!
