Sabbath School From Home

An interesting theme of "deception" shows up in the story of Rahab of Jerico. 

Even more fascinating is the way a similar kind of thing happens slightly later with the Gibeonites, but the narrative frames it differently. Rahab is often lauded as a brave hero, but upon finding out who the Gibeonites really are the Israelites grumble and Joshua "says a curse". But they keep their word and do not kill the Gibeonites. We explore some of the similarities and differences between these deceptions, and are reminded of other Biblical examples that add to the dilemma.

What is Sabbath School From Home?

Sabbath School is perhaps the most communal and participatory element of a regular Seventh-day Adventist church event (after foot-washing), but social distancing has us all isolated at home.
