Watch our Introduction video on the book of Joshua, which outlines the book’s main theme and how it is fulfilled in Jesus. Joshua is about how we can live with God again. Israel’s ancestral land has been taken over by the Canaanites. But God appoints Joshua to lead his people back onto their land and into battle. This meant the Canaanites’ destruction by Joshua’s sword, but ultimately Joshua points us to Jesus’ destruction on the cross. Jesus is how we can live with God again.
