The wall didn’t fall on day one, and yours might not either. In this episode, we look at the story of Jericho and what it teaches us about staying faithful while we wait for breakthrough.

If you’ve been taking the next step, trusting the process, and still wondering why nothing has changed yet, this episode is for you. Before Jericho’s walls ever came down, God’s people had to walk around the city once a day for six days, with nothing visibly happening. We'll unpack three truths from that story: some walls don’t fall on day one, obedience isn’t wasted even when it looks repetitive, and breakthrough comes after faithfulness, not instead of it. This episode continues the series started in Episode 46 (living intentionally) and Episode 47 (seeing God’s faithfulness in your past). Grab a notebook and pen and join us.
