You can also check out The Objective and follow it on Twitter @ObjectiveJrn ; it's run by Jaz's friend Gabe Schneider, who you can follow on Twitter @gabemschneider. You can check out the Christian fiction podcast Forgive Me! if you're interested in that sort of thing; Jaz listened to the whole thing, and is still not sure if they'd recommend it or not. Here's a bit about Rachav from the Talmud, in Zevachim 116b and another one from Megillah 15b.
This week's reading is Joshua 2:1-24. Next week's reading is Samuel I 11:14–12:22.
