Genesis 1:1 Join us as we begin our in-depth expository Bible Study of the Book of Genesis on Wednesday evenings with Pastor Phil Ballmaier.

VCL 28 Thanks for joining us. Today Pastor Phil will bring our series Victorious Christian Living to a close, but not before he imparts a final exhortation to stand strong, and stand firmly on the Lord's side as you walk the road that lies yet ahead. Now lets look at Joshua chapters 23 and 24 as we join Pastor Phil.

VCL 27 Joshua Ch 17-22 As much as we might strive to walk faithfully with the Lord, there will always be those potential dangers that we would do well to avoid. Pastor Phil will draw our attention to Joshua chapters 17 through 22 as he seeks to identify some of these hazards. Let's listen as he brings us today's teaching.

VCL 26 Joshua 14:6-15 In examining what it takes to fight spiritual battles, it's helpful to be able to look at others who have experienced victory in such arenas. Does the Bible give us such examples? Indeed, and today Pastor Phil acquaints us with one such hero of the faith in his message Give Me This Mountain from Joshua chapter 14.

VCL 25 Joshua 13:1-14 Fighting battles in the Christian life is hard work. And frankly, sometimes it just seems easier to let up in a few areas just to try to find some rest. But truth be told, rest through compromise will bring you anything but what you were hoping for! Lets listen as pastor Phil speaks to this idea today in part one of his message Possessing the Fullness of God.

VCL 24 Joshua 9:14-27 While our adversary the devil has his schemes and devices to employ against Gods beloved, we too have a resource to lean upon. And as we'll learn today, if we don't take advantage of this resource, we will very likely fall. We turn now to Joshua chapter 9 as Pastor Phil brings us today's message, The Agony of Deceit.

VCL 23 Joshua 9:1-13 When we speak of spiritual warfare, we must understand that the devil does not simply fire his darts randomly, but rather he has devised various strategies to undermine the children of God. We would do well to learn them that we might experience victory against our adversary. Pastor Phil shares on this vital subject today, as we join him in Joshua chapter 9.

VCL 22 Joshua 8:30-35 Today we find ourselves in Joshua chapter 8. Looking at our text today, you'd get the sense that God's ways don't always line up with our ways. In the case of God's people, they had a momentum building as they gained victory in the promised land. But the God slowed them down-why? As we'll see, the Lord had good reason. Let's join Pastor Phil as he explains.

VCL 21 Joshua 8:1-29 There are many lessons that we can take away from the story of the Israelites tragic defeat at Ai, but one important insight that we want to make sure we consider is that of making regular healthy examinations of our hearts, in an effort to guard against sin. Pastor Phil brings this thought to the fore as we join him now in Joshua chapter 8.

VCL 20 Joshua 7:10-26 When sin gets into the camp, and it begins to bring defeat upon its shoulders, it can be humbling. But, it can also serve as a reminder of the need to be vigilant in our desire to protect the purity in our relationship with God. Joshua learned this hard lesson, and we'll look into these things as Pastor Phil brings today's teaching from Joshua chapter 7.

VCL 19 Joshua 7:1-9 On the road to victory in the Christian life, we must be careful to keep our path clear of sin. If we don't we're liable to learn the hard way that that sin may come back to trip us up. In Pastor Phil's study today, Joshua and the nation Israel discover what happens when sin abides in the camp. Let's join Pastor Phil in Joshua chapter 7.

VCL 18 Joshua 6:12-27 In the Christian life, our Promised Land, victory comes through obedience to God and His word. And consequently, as has been exampled often in history, victory is fleeting in the aftermath of disobedience. In part two of his study, Bringing Down Strongholds, Pastor Phil expands on this important truth.

VCL 17 Joshua 6:1-11 In the Christian life, our Promised Land, victory comes through obedience to God and His word. And consequently, as has been exampled often in history, victory is fleeting in the aftermath of disobedience. In part two of his study, Bringing Down Strongholds, Pastor Phil expands on this important truth. Let's join him now to hear more.

VCL 16 The time had come for God's people, the children of Israel to enter the Land of Promise. As Joshua prepared on that last evening before the entrance, he was met be a unique stranger. Who was it, and for what purpose did this meeting occur. It was a profoundly impacting encounter, and we'll learn about it today as we join Pastor Phil in Joshua chapter 5.

VCL 15 God desires that His people be holy, as they seek to live out the Christian life. While this seems like a heavy trip, God knows that the victory in the Christian life comes through holy living. Considering the sin in our lives and where we all came from, is holy living even possible? Pastor Phil speaks to this question today.

VCL 14 Moving into the Promised Land, God saw the need for this new generation of His people to be given a fresh start, a new beginning, and so He brought them to a place of re-consecration to Him. We will learn the importance of this in our own lives as well as we join Pastor Phil in Joshua chapters 4 and 5.

VCL 13 Having finally left the wilderness behind, and at long last entered the Promised Land, you'd think that it would be time to rest. But, really, many very important lessons on faith awaited God's people as they entered Canaan. We'll seek to glean as Pastor Phil shares on these Lessons at Gilgal, looking at Joshua chapter 4. Pastor Phil also shares about the power testimonies, living stones of God's faithfulness or Pastor Mike McIntosh and Pastor Raul Ries. God receives the glory for such profound changes in these now living stones.

VCL 12 Jesus never said that following Him would always be easy, but those who answer His call do discover a new kind of life, a life rooted in the purpose and plan of God. We're glad you've joined us for our study. Today Pastor Phil will turn our attention to Joshua chapter 4 as he brings us today's teaching.
