In our journey, where we came to last week was we were at the edge of the Jordan River. We've come back just like the children of Israel came back. And God had told Moses he wouldn't be able to go into the promised land, but Joshua would take over for him and lead the children of Israel into the promised land. And Joshua said, I'll do it. We'll go go because he was one of the people in the beginning before they went back out Joshua and Caleb both said we can do this we can follow God's on our side we can do this but none of the rest of the people wanted it but so here we are again. Here I am again. We're at the bank of the Jordan. And so God says go.
