During the unparalleled days of the emancipation of the Hebrews from slavery a young man was being prepared for a historic role. Born under the oppressive whip of Egyptian taskmasters, Joshua the son of Nun steps onto the stage of history a virtual unknown. Chosen by Moses to be at his side, he learns from the iconic leader lessons that are still relevant for us today. A.J. Furst thoughtfully explores the untold story of Joshua's development in becoming the successor to Moses. From being chosen to lead an inexperienced army in battle against a well established king . . . to walking on the mountain of God . . . to exploring the land promised to his ancestor Abraham, take a second look at leadership lessons with application to anyone involved in serving others.
