Rahab and the Spies

Watch the video above and talk about it with your family. Learn more

When spies came to Rahab’s town, she helped to save their lives.

Key Points:

  • Joshua sent spies to check out the Promised Land.
  • A woman named Rahab saved the spies.
  • Because Rahab helped the spies, they kept her and her family safe.
  • God sometimes uses the most surprising people.

Memory Verse:

Hebrews 11:31 It was by faith that Rahab was not destroyed with the people in her city who refused to obey God.

Talk About It

  3. Who did Joshua send to the Promised Land? Why did he do that?
