In this sermon on Joshua 5, Andy draws out profound spiritual lessons which are embedded in Israel’s preparation for battle against Jericho. The three key scenes of circumcision, Passover, and meeting the commander of the Lord’s army offer a framework for believers to prepare for spiritual battles by embracing weakness, remembering grace, and submitting fully to God’s will. These themes culminate in the person and work of Jesus Christ, who conquered sin and death through the cross, inviting believers into His victory by living in humble dependence and obedience to God.

In this sermon Andy McCullough, dives into the remarkable story of Rehab — a woman who was a prostitute, but who became a shining example of faith, courage, and redemption. This sermon explores how Rehab’s bold decision to hide the Israelite spies changed her destiny and placed her in God’s unfolding story. Rehab’s faith not only saved her and her family, but also made her part of the lineage leading to Jesus — a testament to how God uses unlikely people for His purpose.

Scripture portrays Jesus as both Lion and Lamb—victorious over the enemy and willing to suffer, be persecuted, and be crucified for the sins of the world. In this sermon, Andy explains that Christians likewise experience both “lion” moments of victory and “lamb” moments of trial. Our trials shape our character, and our victories strengthen our faith. God is intentional in using every season—both trials and triumphs—to form us into who He has called us to be.

The world is made of things that are natural and supernatural. In the same way there are things about us that are natural and some things that are supernatural. While some religions might prioritize flesh over spirit, or spirit over flesh, the Christian view is that Jesus has come in the flesh to bring our bodies into the domain of the Spirit, the kingdom of God.
