For our first meeting, review the Introduction to the Book of Joshua in your study Bible and search a good Bible dictionary for background on this Old Testament book or equivalent online sources. Think about the who, why, what, how questions - bring 3 or 4 facts to our next meeting to share with the group. Also, I would encourage each of you that still has a copy of the "How to Read the Bible For All Its Worth" book I handed out few months ago to read Chapter 5 - The Old Testament Narratives - Their Proper Use, found on pps. 78-93.
Also, for those of you who read the Bible electronically using the Youversion Bible Reader, I have added a Group to Youversion that you can access below to join. For those of you who have never used Youversion, check it out at Youversion.com. By creating a free account, you can track all your Bible reading on iPad, Droid, iPhone, PC, etc. There are also a ton of reading plans to keep you engaged. By joining the group, you can easily share with others in the group what God has impressed upon you through highlight passages, etc. I thought it would be a neat thing to try as we dive into Joshua together, creating additional accountability as well. Let me know if you have any issues signing up.
