#FaithGoals: Following Rahab’s Example

One of THE COOLEST things about walking through the stories of the women in Jesus’ genealogy is seeing how throughout history God worked in all kinds of people.

Today we are going to get into the story of Rahab, and her story is a story of faith for all of us. God can do whatever He wants, but He chooses to accomplish His will through His relationships with His people and their relationships with each other.

Rahab’s story is an example of immense faith lived out in real life circumstances, and we have been given a faith like hers—one strengthened and refined as we live it out in our daily lives.

So before we dive in, take a look around you. Where has God placed you? What is He doing in your home, your neighborhood, your workplace, your church or your community? Our prayer is that as you listen to this episode, it sparks an idea and a desire to join Jesus in His mission right where you are. God is good! Only be strong and courageous!
