Rahab was written off in every way possible. She is one of the least likely converts in the Bible, but she had heard about God. When the opportunity came, she put her trust in him. It's no surprise that she's listed in the great "Hall of Faith" in Hebrews 11. She shows us what it means to put our faith in God, no matter what we've done or where we find ourselves. She was far off, and by faith, she was brought near.
