I hope that you enjoy second dramatic script in the Advent series 'The women in Jesus' genealogy'. We hear about the prostitute Rahab, who lived in Jericho one of the worst cities who refused God and was steeped in idolatry and sin. She hides the Israelite spies in her house before Israel took hold of Jericho, leading her to become accepted into the chosen people.

Listen to the first dramatic script in the Advent series, 'The women in Jesus' genealogy.' We hear about Tamar in Genesis, 38, an unlikely woman who Jesus chooses to include in His lineage. She becomes not just any mother, but in her motherhood, God raises her, a widow from a Canaanite background ( an enemy of Israel) to become a mother of a royal line that eventually leads to King David, then Jesus. I invite you now two thousand years after the first coming of Christ to listen to how Tamar's story speaks to you this Advent.
