Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz and you're listening to the Bible in a year podcast,

where we encounter God's voice and live life through the lens of Scripture.

The Bible in a year podcast is brought to you by Ascension.

Using the great adventure Bible timeline, we'll read all the way from Genesis to Revelation,

discovering how the story of salvation unfolds and how we fit into that story today.

It is day 82 and we are on the second day of the time period of conquest and judges.

with the book of Joshua, pretty much for the next eight or so days, until day 88,

where we'll conclude at Joshua, and then day 89, we'll move over to Judges.

to get you to subscribe? Chances are you've already subscribed, and we are really,

really grateful for that. As I said today, we are reading from Joshua, chapter 5 through chapter 7,

When all the kings of the Amorites that were beyond the Jordan to the west, and all the kings

of the Canaanites that were by the sea, heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan

for the sons of Israel until they had crossed over. Their heart melted, and there was no longer
