Selected highlights from this sermon

Pastor Wiersbe presents the story of Rahab as a picture of God’s grace and salvation. Rahab was a prostitute, condemned morally, spiritually, and politically. She had little knowledge of God’s law, yet she had faith, and God showed her more grace than she could have imagined.

Transcripts for Dr. Wiersbe's sermons are forthcoming. Below is an outline of his message.

If you took women of faith out of the Bible you would have great gaps.
