#381: Brave in New Places- Back to school part 1

Author: Jessica White July 30, 2025 Duration: 15:04
📖 Scripture: Deuteronomy 31:1–8 & Joshua 1:1–11 School is starting! And whether your child is excited, nervous, or somewhere in between — this episode offers encouragement straight from the Bible. Join us as we step into the sandals of Joshua — a man about to take on a big new job in a brand-new place. Moses, his wise and aged mentor, passes on the baton, and God reminds Joshua (and us!) of one powerful truth: You don’t have to be brave by yourself — God goes with you. We’ll explore what it means to trust God when facing something new, whether that’s a classroom, a new friend group, or the start of a school year. -------------------------- Thanks to today's voice guest, Clayton Greene. Clayton is one of the co-founders of GoodKind, the maker of Advent Blocks.
