Class Title – The Spirit to Succeed: Overcoming the Past to Embrace the Future – A Text Study of the Beginning of the Book of Joshua Part One

Class taught by Michael Hattin

Class description: In this mini-course, we will go “back to the source” and study some pivotal events from the beginning of Sefer Yehoshua. The material contains a number of excellent expressions of courage: Joshua, Rahav the Harlot, and the people of Israel themselves all must show their own special resolve in the face of overwhelming challenges. We will explore what is necessary for cultivating courage as we watch each protagonist in turn overcome trauma in developing resilience.
