Well, hey, guys, welcome to our daily drive. If we haven't met, my name is Carlos, and I get to be a part of the

pastoral team here at Lake Point. And hey, we get to hang out this week for a few minutes every day as we dive together into the Word of God. And this week, the name of this series, devotionals, is deeper because we're going deeper together every day on one particular aspect of our lives and our relationship with Jesus. And Monday, we spoke about going deeper in intimacy.

Tuesday, we spoke about going deeper in holiness.

And today, we're going deeper in courage.

And this is the word of the Lord for you today found in Joshua chapter 1, verse 9.

This is God speaking to you today.

He says, have I not commanded you be strong

and courageous do not be afraid do not be discouraged for the lord your god will be with you

experiment called Biosphere 2, which was and still is apparently the greatest attempt to build

an artificial ecosystem in the middle of a desert that could potentially sustain human life for several years

with the purpose that one day we could replicate that in outer space. Now this is crazy. You can

probably Google this later, but apparently $150 million were invested in this project and

these scientists came together and created some sort of facility with oxygen, food,

plants, and water.

And they put eight people in this bubble-looking facility to see if they could survive in it

for several years.
