Application

  1. In Joshua 22, we see an example of the Israelites trying to address rebellion within their community. How can you apply this example when you see a fellow Christian appear to sin?

  2. Joshua tells the people not to worship idols and to throw away foreign idols (Joshua 24:23) and instead, cling to the Lord. (Joshua 23:8) Ask God if you need to physically get rid of some idols in your life. What are some actions you can take to cling to the Lord?
