Discussion questions
- Read the canonical passage that "The Fall of Jericho" dramatizes. What stands out in the scripture itself that you may have missed in any retelling — including this one?
- In "The Fall of Jericho", which character's choices struck you most? What about the way they faced their moment makes them memorable?
- Joshua 6 is the canonical source. How does this passage connect to other narratives in scripture? What themes does it share with other Bible stories you know?
- Imagine yourself in Joshua's position at the most difficult moment of the story. What would you have feared? What would have given you courage?
- How does this story shape what you believe about God's faithfulness — to the people in the story, and to you today?
Reflection prompts
- Pause and re-read Joshua 6 slowly. Pray through the passage one verse at a time. Where does it speak to your current circumstances?
- Ask the Lord to give you the same courage that Joshua showed when it counted most. Be specific about where in your life you need it.
- Write down one truth from this story that you want to carry with you this week, and one decision you'll act on because of it.
