Teaching Travelers with moldy bread and old sandals

Before we make decisions, we should ask God first - His wisdom keeps us from being fooled by what only looks right.

  • Joshua got tricked because he forgot to ask God. Why is it important to ask God before making decisions?
  • The Gibeonites LOOKED truthful, but they weren't. Why can't we always trust how things look?
  • Joshua kept his promise even though it was hard. Why is it important to keep our promises?
