Joshua's calling from God

Before a man is hired for an important job, he is often given a background check. His past life is examined to see just what kind of man he has been. As we start our study in the book of Joshua, we will do a through examination of Scripture about Joshua. We will discover a number of important characteristics about him which gave Joshua good credentials and qualifications to be Moses' successor and to be the conquer of Canaan. These discoveries will also provide us important lessons concerning what sort of persons we all need to be in order to be placed in service for God and to be a conqueror of the evils of Canaan in our own lives.
