The Invasion That Saved the World — D-Day, Joshua 1, and a Call to Go by Pastor Paul Stephens | TEMPE CONF 2025
D-Day was an invasion that broke a fortress. Joshua 1 is God’s command to invade darkness with courage and obedience. This message links the cost at Normandy to the church’s call today: enter enemy-held territory, work as one body, send and support workers, and see captives set free in Jesus. Texts: Joshua 1:1–9, Ephesians 6:12, Colossians 1:13, Acts 1–2.https://TakingTheLandPodcast.comSUBSCRIBE TO PREMIUM FOR MORE:• Subscribe for only $3/month on Supercast: https://taking-the-land.supercast.com/• Subscribe for only $3.99/month on Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taking-the-land/subscribe• Subscribe for only $4.99/month on Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3vy1s5bNext steps:• Pray and ask God where to go or give• Talk with your pastor about readiness• Support missionaries and church plants• Share this and invite a friendChapters00:00 The Treasure Beneath the Waves02:45 The Call to Give05:36 The Power of Willingness in Giving08:48 The Joy of Generosity11:45 Acknowledging God's Ownership14:53 The Urgency of Action17:43 The Need for Invasion20:55 Preparing for a Worldwide Mission23:11 The Historical Context of Invasion26:18 The Spiritual Battle29:20 The Need for Courage32:13 The Call to Action35:06 The Promise of Victory38:25 The Necessity of Teamwork in Invasion44:58 The Power of Unity and Contribution49:12 The Role of the Church as the Body of Christ53:05 The Invasion of Salvation and Deliverance58:15 The Call to Action and ReadinessShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!
