A (Shared) Promised Land. 9.17.23.
from North Decatur Presbyterian Church · host NDPC
9.19.23. In the book of Joshua, God seems to direct Joshua to conduct a divinely-sanctioned ethnic cleansing in order to make room for God’s people in the Promised Land. It’s one of the most chilling books in scripture. Why would we even read it? As we begin exploring our annual theme, Making Room, Rev. Lewicki sees Joshua as a powerful place to begin our reflection about how complicated and spiritually-demanding this process of “making room” can be in practice.
