<\/a>Josh excavating at the Pool of Siloam<\/em><\/p>\n
Josh loved kids. Several times we went camping and took not only my boys but also the young boys of another dear man<\/a> now with the Lord. Josh loved to play with them, encourage them, and they really loved him.<\/p>\n Josh was also part of “Square B” – a group of students at IBEX in the fall of 2000 who simply couldn’t excavate a small patch of dirt to save their lives. The worst part of it was that they claimed to be superior to all others. In fact, they have reminded me of this nearly every month for the last seven years, an astonishing feat given that when most students leave Israel, they are out of my life. In moments like these though, you certainly cherish those you formerly said bad things about.<\/p>\n Josh was a remarkable servant as well. He would go out of his way to help others, irrespective of his own needs or plans. He demonstrated this to me countless times, but also to his roommates and all around him. He also put together the video I posted here of Ephesians, completely as an act of service. There’s so much more that I could say, but I’ll sum it up with something I wrote in a job recommendation I gave for him last summer: “…he is hard-working, conscientious, loving, disciplined, and faithful.”<\/p>\n Josh made a good point in the email that he sent after the accident: A million different questions and scenarios all point to a sovereign God who does things for His glory.<\/strong> I’m thankful that the Lord, in his sovereign wisdom, protected Josh so that he walked away with only a few cuts and bruises.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I received an email today that Joshua Clutterham, former IBEX student, TMC graduate, M.A. Biblical Counseling graduate, and employee of the Biblical Counseling program at The Master’s College was in a serious car accident.
