About this episode
God’s ways are rarely what we would expect, and Joshua 6 makes that unmistakably clear. As Israel stands before the walls of Jericho, the Lord doesn’t hand them a battle plan built on strength, strategy, or military dominance. Instead, He calls them to obedience, patience, and trust in a plan that makes no sense by human standards.
In this episode of The Pursuit of Manliness Podcast, we explore the unorthodox way of the Lord and what it reveals about biblical manhood. What does it look like to lead when God’s instructions challenge our pride, logic, and desire for control? How do men remain faithful when obedience feels foolish or slow?
Joshua 6 reminds us that true strength is found not in force, but in faith and that victory belongs to the Lord alone.
