		<description><![CDATA[Every week, my local newspaper runs a small piece called “A Student’s View,” written, as you can probably guess, by a high school student on the topic of his or her choice.
In a recent one, titled “Oh my God,” a Jewish girl wrote protesting her parents’ insistence that she attend synagogue services for the High [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wonder what it feels like to know you are an indestructible man. That’s what Caleb son of Jephunneh was. Not many of us have a guarantee that we will live tomorrow, but Caleb did. The fact is it was impossible for him to die before he received the promise made to him 45 years [...]]]></description>

As the girls and I were going through the lesson, I had the opportunity to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Enough looking back. Time to move on again. That rearward glance was just to energize you for the next conquest. The people of God are not a backward looking people (Philippians 3:13; Isaiah 65:17), except to draw strength for the present by remembering God’s power and faithfulness. Joshua in chapter 13 lists the real estate [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The grandiosity and confidence of some theologians and pastors in an age of democratic theology is something the early church fathers would find puzzling. If you’re attending a vibrant church, it seems easy to assume that your church must be “right.” In evangelicalism, what qualifies as credible is often church size and pastoral charisma. If [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is beneficial to stop and take a regular tally of the deeds of God in your life, as we do in this chapter. Living through the drama of the conquest of Ai was exhausting&#8212;hopeful at the outset, demoralizing in the middle, exhilarating in the end. The rear-view mirror perspective reveals God’s justice and mercy [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Why did Jesus speak so often in parables? One reason, perhaps, is that the people He addressed had never seen the Kingdom of Heaven. Hearing a good parable is the next best thing to understanding through personal experience. Of course, people need to open their hearts and minds to be willing to listen and perceive.

		<description><![CDATA[It is “chariots” that strike me in my “just one thing” from this chapter of Joshua. The word is not dropped idly here by the Lord. There is a vendetta behind this. God makes a point of noting that when Joshua swept the land clean of God’s enemies, “he hamstrung their horses and burned their [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, most Americans have at least heard of the godfather of community organizing, Saul Alinsky (1909-1972), and his 1971 book, Rules for Radicals. Turn on conservative talk radio any day and there&#8217;s a good chance you&#8217;ll hear Alinsky&#8217;s Rule No. 13 cited derisively: &#8220;Pick the target, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As we reach chapter 10, I was thinking that the story of Israel’s conquests could have ended abruptly and ignominiously at chapter 7. That was the first battle of Ai, the one they entered jubilant after Jericho and exited dejected after sin was discovered in the camp.
Some children of God might have lost heart and [...]]]></description>
