Choices, part 5 [Joshua ch.5]
No more manna, no more free bread from heaven
The time comes to live off the fruit of the promise

Within God’s challenge, within his dare...
[Note: Chapter 5 also contains indisputable proof that the men of Israel trusted Joshua at a visceral level. There can be no doubt in the minds of men who choose to follow a leader who says, "Okay guys, today is the day when we all get circumcised." That takes real conviction! Wow...]
