n Joshua 24, we see Joshua's final words to the Israelites. He reminds them of God's faithfulness and calls them to choose who they will serve. After Joshua's death, a new generation arises, one that doesn't know the Lord or the miracles He performed for Israel.


Key Themes:
  • The Importance of Choosing God: Joshua's final words emphasize the importance of choosing to serve the Lord and to obey His commandments.
  • The Consequences of Disobedience: When the Israelites stray from God's ways, they face hardship and oppression.
  • God's Continued Provision: Despite their failures, God never abandons His people. He raises up judges to deliver them from their enemies.

Family Discussion Points:
  • What does it mean to choose to serve God?
  • How can we help our children understand the importance of following God's ways?
  • How can we trust in God's faithfulness, even when things are difficult?

This period of Israel's history reminds us that following God is a choice we make each day. When we stray from His path, we experience the consequences, but God's love and mercy are always available to guide us back.


Additional Activities:
  • Read Joshua 24 together as a family and discuss Joshua's final words.
  • Create a family timeline of the events in Joshua 24-Judges 3.
  • Research and discuss the lives of the judges mentioned in Judges 3.
  • Write a letter to God expressing your commitment to follow Him.

Prayer Points:

  • Pray for guidance and wisdom to raise our children in the ways of the Lord.
  • Pray for the courage to trust in God's faithfulness, even when things are difficult.
