By Grace Made Alive



Paul continues to elaborate on how gracious God for those who are in Christ. In fact, God saving people from their rebellious ways to put them in Christ is the most gracious act God has done for us. The rest is an extension of that overwhelmingly undeserving kindness. How will we respond? God has foreordained that as well since we are in Christ.

Rahab and Joshua



Rahab teaches us as much about Jesus as Joshua does.  She enters the story with a sordid reputation that tarnishes nearly everyone who associates with her. Yet she is crucial to knowing God and the work that the LORD was doing with the Israelites and Canaanites.

Sinners saved by grace.
