Many have made a start for God but were later sidetracked by various influences. Joshua, the Old Testament leader, gives an example of one who not only started well as a young man but also continued well and finished well. We would like to learn these lessons through a study of his life, connecting Joshua's example with additional encouragement from the New Testament.
