Joshua 18-19: Don't be content with partial victory
From 2Timothy2.org
Theological Proposition/Focus: God desires his people to be Christ-like and continues to push us forward in growth.
Homiletical Proposition/Application: We have a tendency to declare victory once we have finished the easy part. In our spiritual growth, we must not declare victory simply because we are ready to be done.
