Our back-to-school theme is Brave Like Joshua, based on Joshua 1:1-9.
New school years bring new adventures—new classrooms, new teachers, new friends, and sometimes new worries. It’s normal to feel a little nervous when we don’t know what’s ahead.
Joshua knew that feeling too. After Moses, the leader the Israelites had always known, was gone, Joshua was asked to lead God’s people into a brand-new chapter. That was a big job!
But God reminded Joshua of something important: “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9)
God didn’t expect Joshua to have every answer or a perfect plan. God simply promised to go with him. And that promise is true for us, too. We can be brave because we never face new challenges alone—God is always with us!

Psalm 23 is one of the most familiar and beloved passages in the Bible; however, we can sometimes miss the depth and richness of what the psalm is saying about God—and about what it means to live as one of God’s sheep.
