Are you being shaped and sanctified by the word of God? How have you been shaped and sanctified by the word of God this past year? How do you plan to be shaped and sanctified by the Word of God in the coming year?

Judges and 1–2 Samuel bridge the gap from the entrance of the people of God into the Promised Land under the faithful leadership of Joshua to their expulsion from the land due to unfaithful kings in 1–2 Kings. Judges portrays the people of God languishing without good leadership.

The Acts of the Apostles is a sequel to the Gospel of Luke who was a physician and travel companion of the apostle Paul. In the book of Acts, Luke begins by noting how “in the first book” (that is, the Gospel of Luke), he “dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach” (Acts 1:1).

Joshua 13-19 is not the most exciting part in the book of Joshua. Those seven chapters are about the allocation of the land (inheritance) for each of the twelve tribes. When carefully read, they provide us with important spiritual insights that are relevant for us today.

Psalms 120—134 are described collectively as “Songs of Ascent,” thought to be recited by pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem for sacred festivals and other times of worship. Many of these psalms express the affliction of life that the people of God undergo, while also extolling God as their only hope and joy and source of life.

This week, we will begin reading the book of Joshua as a campus at NHF-Mississauga. See the overview prepared by Pastor Charles, and visit the Bible Project to learn more!

This week (June 22~28) we are reading through Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the Bible and the giant among the psalms that shows such magnificent delight in the Word of God
