COURSE SYNOPSIS:
A dynamic warrior in Biblical
times, Joshua led Israel in the conquest of Canaan,
vanquishing Jericho and other cities to bring
Palestine under Israelite control. Joshua's
leadership, with the divine guidance of God, was
marked by courage and devotion to the law given to
Moses. In the Civil War, another brave warrior felt
he was similarly led by Providence. General Thomas
"Stonewall" Jackson believed that he was God's
instrument on Earth. His mission was victory for
the Almighty. Through his strong faith, he
reinforced the resolve and beliefs of fellow
Southerners as he shepherded his followers into
battle. This program teaches what it truly means to
be a prayer warrior, and shows us how we too can
serve as Christian soldiers in the army of the
Lord.
"Among the many lessons that can be
learned from studying the life of Stonewall
Jackson, one of the most important is to, live each
day boldly without fear, loving and serving the
Lord our God in all things, and be prepared to
leave this earth for our heavenly home at any
time." - Jim Riddle
The
addition of information quoted from "Stonewall
Jackson's Book of Maxims" and "Stonewall Jackson -
The Man, The Soldier, The Legend," by James I.
Robertson, JR. compliment the study, and the design
and layout of the course is simple to follow and
very well organized. Each lesson plan includes
multiple scripture readings that correlate to each
OCS chapter. Questions are also provided at the end
of each section that challenge the readers to
examine their own lives and how they would react to
similar situations. Participants are also called
upon to share their own experiences in order to
facilitate multiple perspectives on a given topic.
"One of my favorite aspects of this
study is the wonderful scripture readings that have
been provided as Jim has broken down each OCS
chapter and created both a historical and spiritual
analysis to generate discussion regarding
Stonewall's journey. He has incorporated a lot of
material from Psalms, Proverbs, and the Book Of
Joshua. I am especially pleased to see him
specifically cite the New King James Version
(NKJV), as I myself have recently leaned more
towards the KJV (in my own Men's group) as opposed
to the New International Version (NIV) of which
I've used for the last 4 years." - Michael
Aubrecht
