Episode 13 — Choose This Day! (Joshua 24)
At the end of his life, Joshua doesn’t pass on a throne—he calls God’s people to make a choice. Standing at Shechem, surrounded by memories of God’s faithfulness, Joshua invites Israel to renew their covenant with the true King.
This episode explores Joshua 24 as a covenant renewal ceremony, where freedom meets responsibility, personal choice shapes communal destiny, and faith must move beyond history into commitment. From buried idols to a stone that stands as a witness, Joshua’s final words echo across generations:
“As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
This is not just Israel’s story—it’s ours.
