Joshua leads a nighttime march for a surprise attack, and God sends a storm with giant hailstones that scatter the enemy. When Joshua sees the battle will last past sunset, he prays a bold prayer. God makes the sun stand still over Gibeon and the moon pause so Israel can finish the fight...
The Shoebox Kids head out for a short Sabbath School hike and learn a big lesson about faith. Even though they cannot see any animals, Sammy spots tracks in the mud. They cannot see the wind, but they feel it and watch it move the trees. Back in class, Mrs. Shue reads Hebrews 11:1 and invites everyone to watch for “Jesus’ footprints” this quarter. The kids will look for small clues that Jesus is with them, like answer...
News of Israel’s victories spreads, and the people of Gibeon hatch a sneaky plan: they dress in worn-out clothes, carry crumbly bread, and pretend to be from far away so Joshua will make peace with them. The leaders look at the evidence, taste the bread—and forget to pray. Three days later, they discover the truth. Because they had promised safety, Israel keeps its word, and the Gibeonites become woodcutters and water...
Maria thinks copying answers from her teacher’s book is “no big deal”—until a cookie caper with her little sister, Yo-Yo, makes the truth impossible to hide. Later in Sabbath School, the Shoebox Kids study Achan’s story and learn that God sees everything and wants honest hearts. Maria realizes she needs to tell the truth, too. A relatable story about temptation, telling the truth, and how God helps us choose integrity...
After the victory at Jericho, Israel expects an easy win at Ai—but the soldiers run away and Joshua falls before God, devastated.

He confesses that he hid silver, gold, and clothes under his tent. Israel removes the sin from the camp, a...
During fitness class, the Shoebox Kids trudge through endless laps and start wondering why God asked Israel to march around Jericho for seven days.

The kids share their own “remember when God helped…” stories, then face another week of laps with fres...
Two spies slip into Jericho and find unexpected help from Rahab, who lowers them over the wall with a red rope and trusts God to save her family.

When they obey, Jericho...

From Mount Nebo, Moses blesses the tribes and says goodbye as Joshua becomes Israel’s new leader. God tells Joshua to be strong and brave and to lead the people across the flooded Jordan.

In their new land, Israel celebrates Passov...

King Balak hires the prophet Balaam to curse Israel, but God says Balaam may only speak His words. On the road, Balaam’s donkey sees an angel with a sword and swerves three times to keep him safe.

Humbled, Balaam goes to Moab and, instead of cursing, blesses God’s people again and again because no...

Inspired, the kids secretly plan a surprise “thank-you” party to show appreciation for their pastor, even solving a parking puzzle so he will not suspect a thing. When the lights flash on and everyone shouts “Surprise!”, ...
Korah is unhappy that he is not a priest, so he convinces Dathan, Abiram, and many leaders to challenge Moses and Aaron. Moses prays and tells everyone to bring bowls of incense so God can show whom He has chosen. The next day, God stops the rebellion: the ground opens under the ringleaders, fire falls on the 250 men with incense, and a disease spreads among the crowd until Aaron runs with his incense to save the peop...
Jenny and Willie can hardly contain their excitement when a pink letter arrives from Mrs. Socks, the editor of Primary Treasure, announcing she will visit their church and gather everyone’s favorite animal stories.

Twelve spies explore Canaan and return with amazing fruit and a glowing report about the rich land, but most are afraid of the giants and walled cities.

Years later, Mom helps run a soup kitchen and shelter, showing God’s love in action. The governor noticed, but the be...
When God’s special tent was finished, He chose helpers to care for it. Moses called the people together and showed that Aaron would be the high priest, with special clothes that jingled with tiny bells and a shining breastplate with twelve jewels. The Levites would pack, carry, and set up the tent wherever God led. Aaron’s sons lit sweet incense from God’s holy fire, reminding everyone of His promise to send Jesus to ...

Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
