BJ's Teddy Bear Club and Bible Stories is a children's television show designed to teach young children about the stories and lessons within the Bible. Season 1, episode 12 follows the story of Joshua and the Battle of Jericho.
The episode begins with BJ, the host of the show, introducing the story of Joshua and explaining that Joshua was Moses' successor who was chosen by God to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land. BJ's teddy bear friends, Caleb and Nathan, are excited to hear more about Joshua and his journey. BJ then begins to narrate the story of Joshua and the Battle of Jericho.
The story begins with the Israelites camped outside the city of Jericho. God had promised Joshua that he would give them the city if they followed his instructions. Joshua was determined to trust God and obey his commands, so he made sure the Israelites followed his plan. God instructed Joshua that he was to march around the city of Jericho once a day for six days, with seven priests carrying seven trumpets of ram's horns in front of the Ark of the Covenant. On the seventh day, they were to march around the city seven times, and the priests were to blow the trumpets. After the priests blew the trumpets, the Israelites were to shout, and the walls of Jericho would come tumbling down.
BJ explains to Caleb and Nathan that it was very important for the Israelites to trust and obey God's commands. Even if they did not always understand the plan, they had to put their faith in God and trust that he would take care of them.
As the story unfolds, the Israelites march around the city of Jericho, following God's instructions. On the seventh day, as the Israelites shout and the trumpets blast, the walls of Jericho crumble and fall. The Israelites then conquered the city, just as God had promised.
After the story is finished, BJ emphasizes the importance of trusting and obeying God's commands, just as Joshua did. He reminds his teddy bear friends that it is important to always have faith in God, even when things seem impossible. Caleb and Nathan are excited to learn more about the Bible and the many lessons it has to offer.
