God’s Extended Blessing God’s love, mercy, and grace extend even in our disobedience. Joshua and the rulers of Israel felt confident in their own decision-making ability that they forgot to inquire of God to get His take on the Gibeonites. The story is found in Joshua 9. In the early stages of the Israel’s conquest […]
