Marching Orders for a New Year

The Children of Israel were off to a new start. Moses had led them for the past 40 years. But now he was dead. In fact, all the older generation had died off in the wilderness. Joshua and Caleb were the only old guys left. For 40 long years, the marching orders for Moses had been: “Take another lap around Mt. Sinai.” Now, at last, Joshua received new marching orders.
