Sermons on Genesis 41:42:

The Joseph Factor

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Apr 23, 2022

In this sermon we look at a very special anointing on Joseph's life, that God wants to release on us today. Joseph had it, and we need it. All we have to do is ask for it.

I want to talk to you today about the Joseph factor. The first thing I want to say today is that I don't only want you to hear my words today, I want you to hear my heart. I'm not a person given to snap judgments, or to extremes. I'm pretty even tempered, and pretty even-keeled. ...read more

Remembered By God Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

The life of Joseph intrigues us. And his life intrigues because it’s a roller coaster ride of a life. Along the way, he wears the hats of a shepherd, a slave, a prison warden, and a governor. Relationally, he’s a son, a brother, a husband, a father, and a grandfather.

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Sep 24, 2016
