But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.
Joshua has been a leader from the day we first met him. Only he and Caleb had the courage to give a good report to Moses when the 12 spies went forward into Canaan. Joshua apprenticed for 40 years under Moses, the man to whom God talked face to face. But this . . . but this is leadership that I understand today.
As for me - - God is my God. And I speak for my family - - God will be their God too. Men, lead your families in this way. We all serve something or someone. Serve the Lord.

Thanks for the reminder that it is studly and heroic to love our families! I am praying for a revival of men like Joshua in our community. We need warriors who lead their families.
