Rahab, Episode 5: From Outsider to the Family Line of Jesus
Rahab marries into Israel and becomes the great-great-grandmother of King David, and is named right in the family tree of Jesus. Hebrews and James both list her with the heroes of faith. God's grace is bigger than your story, and when you trust him he brings you all the way in as family.

For Parents
Belonging is one of the deepest things a kid feels, and the lack of it cuts just as deep. This finale lands there. Pastor Justin traces Rahab from a destroyed city all the way into the family tree of Jesus, showing kids that where you come from doesn't decide where God can take you. After listening, ask your kid about a time they felt like they didn't belong, and remind them that trusting God makes them family, not a guest.
The One Thing for the Ride
“God's grace reaches everyone. No one is too far gone for God to rescue, and when you trust him, he brings you all the way in as family.”
Scripture
Matthew 1:5
CSB
