Strong and Courageous: Embracing New Chapters
As 2024 draws to a close, Chris Johnson, Senior Director of Church Partnerships and External Advocacy at Lifeline Children’s Services, leads a reflective study from Joshua 1. In this episode, we explore the lessons God teaches through Joshua’s transition into leadership, guiding the Israelites into the Promised Land. Together, we’ll discover how to close past chapters, focus on God’s purpose for our lives, and trust Him completely as we step into the opportunities of a new year.
