Do you ever feel that your past disqualifies you from what God is asking of you? The speaker begins with his own story, years in hospitals, speech therapy, and the conviction that he would never stand up in front of people, and then leads us to Joshua 2, to the house of Rahab. The message shows how a woman from the lowest place in her society ends up in the genealogy of Jesus and is set beside Abraham as an example of living faith (James 2). Listen in if you need the courage to step into God’s story despite your own.
