What do military spies, a prostitute, and a scarlet cord have to do with faith and salvation? This message from the Book of Joshua explains how these things fit into God’s “One Story” plan.

Further Discussion

Pastors David Beaty and David Holcomb discuss whether or not it was alright for Rahab to lie.

Series Information

The Bible is one book—one amazing work of literature —historical, theological, and anthropological. It is the one story of redemption. In part one, we begin in the beginning. The books of the Law and History help lay the foundation for the story. We will notice the continuous narrative of God’s people as the story advances each week. In doing so, we will begin to see the many Old Testament shadows of the One who is the substance in God’s grand plan of redemption—Jesus—the Christ, Messiah, and Savior, the One who is central to the entirety of this one story.
