After getting our families settled into a new school year, Car Chat Podcast is back! Each month, we chat in my car about one woman of the Bible. This month, we are talking about Rahab. Her story is found in Judges 2, 6.
Who is she?
1. She was a prostitute.
2. She responded with belief.
3. She was saved.
Goodness, this was such a rich conversation as we built context into her life and situation. God was so faithful to her. She didn't allow her label to define her even thought she is mentioned 2 places in the NT as "the prostitute." After God saved her, it became not a label of disgrace but a badge of grace because it pointed to the rescue and redemption of God.
She is one of us and who God was to her he is to you and me.
We hope our conversation encourages you.
Much love,
Amy & Jamy

We've had so much fun hearing your stories of connecting with these women in the Bible and each other. Some of you have gathered up your friends and created a small group around these podcasts, diving into God's word yourselves and joining into our conversation with your own.
As an added supplement to every episode, Jamy is writing discussion questions to use as a group in discussion or individually to process through in prayer with God.
