All Your Heart: Established (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Introduction. This morning we continue in the book of Joshua, I want to remind you of where we left off last week.

Introduction. This morning we begin a new series on the book of Joshua which I am titling “With All Your Heart” after Joshua’s exhortation to Israel as he prepares to pass over from life through death into eternal life.
