Today is the 12th day of April.

Welcome to the Daily Audio Vival.

I am Brian. Good to be here with you.

Another day, right? Another step forward and another week under our belts.

Alright, so good to be here around the global campfire as we continue this journey forward.

In the Old Testament, we're in the book of Joshua now, so we finally, finally are in the Promised Land.

And we finally get to watch that story unfold.

chapter 5 verse 1 through 7 verse 15 today.

Thank you. 15 today.

circumcision Hill.

The sons of these men had never been circumcised, and it was this new generation that Joshua

circumcised.
