FOR DISCUSSION

• WHY do you think God used both Rahab’s voice and Israel’s silence in the story of Jericho?

• WHEN have you seen silence become powerful rather than passive? How can silence be an act of discipline, unity, or trust instead of fear or avoidance?

• WHAT kind of inner transformation or trust might be necessary for a person or a community to keep marching in obedience before they see any visible evidence of victory?

• SINCE Rahab’s past did not disqualify her from participating in God’s deliverance, how might this challenge the way we view ourselves or others?
