Charlie's Challenge: 9.24.23

  Charlie’s Challenges: Extras from the sermon 

Faithful in the Long Haul


Key verse:  

“Today if you hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts, as when they provoked me.”

 Hebrews 3:15


Texts of the day Numbers 13-14, Joshua 14:9-15


What does the story of the 10 unfaithful spies tell you about human nature and herd mentality?


Did the people of Israel see enough to have faith?  If not, would there ever be enough?


Did God’s sentence on the people for 40 years of wandering seem too harsh, not harsh enough, or about right?  Why do you say that?


What is your reaction to God killing the ten unfaithful spies?  What does that tell you about leadership?


What most impresses you about Caleb?


Of the three character traits we see in Caleb, (1-faith doesn’t happen in a flash, 2-faith wants the big challenge, 3-faith is humble) which one do you most need to work on this week?  What about long term?


Think about the prayer, “Lord, what do you want to do through me?  How is that like or unlike what you are praying now?
