A Courageous Faith | Hebrews 11:31

1. Why do you think Rahab is identified in verse 11 as “the prostitute”? Is her moral character important to her faith?

2. Read Joshua 2:1-8. Do you think it was a coincidence that the spies were let into Jericho through Rahab’s window?

3. If Rahab received the spies by faith, then where did her faith come from since she lived in Jericho and the nation of Israel was in the desert? See Joshua 2:10.

4. Read Isaiah 55:2. What does this scripture teach about discontent? Do you think Rahab was looking for something more than the life she had?

5. How do the stories in the bible help to build greater faith in us? See Romans 10:17

6. Joshua 2:11 says that their hearts melted. How can fear of God be a motivation to trust Him?

7. Read James 2:25. Why do you think James uses Rahab’s action as a way to demonstrate her faith?
