Joshua is holding band tryouts before the march around Jericho. The Lord said: march around the city seven days, blow trumpets on the seventh, shout, and the wall will come down. Joshua, being a good leader, has decided he wants this thing to sound great. So he is auditioning every kid in camp. Auditioner one plays the kazoo. Auditioner two bangs on a pot. Auditioner three brought no instrument. Joshua keeps saying "You're in." On the seventh lap around a cardboard wall, the worst marching band in Bible history shouts — and the wall falls.
Theme — God didn't need a marching band. He needed marchers who would trust Him.
