About this episode
The theme of Joshua 2 is about an unlikely ally. Preparing to conquer Jericho, Joshua sends two spies who hide in the home of Rahab, a woman with a bad reputation who risks her life to protect them. Rahab’s faith in God is remarkable, as she trusts in his power after hearing of his miracles, including parting the Red Sea and defeating enemy kings. Rahab secures a promise to save her family during the destruction by hanging a scarlet cord in her window. The spies return to Joshua with encouraging news about Jericho’s fear. Rahab’s story shows that anyone can trust in God and find redemption, regardless of their past.
