Our mission is to preserve New Church audio recordings and make them available to all. We provide audiobooks of works by Emanuel Swedenborg, recordings of New Church sermons, Swedenborgian classes, and more. These offer opportunities for Bible study and spiritual growth, exploring Biblical symbolism and New Church theology.
New Church Audio is a program of The New Church, an international Christian organization.
The New Church is a Christian denomination based on the Bible and the revelation given to Emanuel Swedenborg. We believe that true faith is loving the Lord Jesus Christ by following his teachings and being of service to others.
Description: The third part in a series following the stories of Joshua and the Children of Israel. Through these stories, we are focusing on how we can get meaning and understanding from the Bible.
This week we are dealing with a tough issue; why does the Lord punish people with death? In our story this week Achan disobeys the Lord's command not to take from the city of Jericho, and the children of Israel put Achan and his whole family to death. Is this Justice? Did the Lord ask them to do this, and are we supposed to be this harsh in our punishments?
