That righteousness comes through faith in Jesus Christ. Now, in Romans 4 and 5, Paul takes that truth further. How does faith work? What does it mean to be justified by faith? Was this really something new? And what happens to a person who has been justified? Paul answers those questions by taking us back to Abraham, the father of faith, and then forward to Jesus Christ, the One through whom we have peace with God.

When Israel faced the walls of Jericho, God gave them an unusual command: march, wait, worship, and trust. Joshua 6 reminds us that victory belongs to the Lord, and no wall can stand when He decides to bring it down.
