Sometimes, passages of the Bible can be tough to understand and to accept. Dr. David Bruner focuses us in on Joshua 6, one of the more violent and controversial sections of the Old Testament and gives us different perspectives and contextual offerings that we can utilize when something we read in the Bible may make us uncomfortable.
