Joshua 2 - 3

Joshua
JoshuaSteve Gregg

Steve Gregg dives into Joshua chapters 2 and 3, discussing Rahab's faith as she hides the Israelite spies in her home and the miracle of the drying Jordan River as the Israelites cross into the Promised Land. Despite Rahab's questionable profession, she is praised for her actions, and Steve raises the question of whether acting in love and faith are more important than telling the whole truth in certain situations. The crossing of the Jordan River is recognized as a miraculous event, with natural explanations falling short of explaining the river's sudden and complete drying.
