    In this sermon we learn how Joseph was able to resist the challenging temptation he faced from Potiphar's wife.

    Introduction: A. Let me begin by asking you: “What is it that is most tempting to you?” 1. I think it is funny to watch cats stare at a fish bowl or a bird cage – it is so representative of temptation’s attraction. 2. When I was a kid we had cats and they would sit and ...read more

    A Picture Of Jesus

    Contributed by Don Baggett on Jun 26, 2010

     | 5,449 views

    The Bible is about Jesus, and there are many pictures of Him, even in the Old Testament where His name is not given. This message shows how Joseph is a picture of Jesus.

    I heard a preacher say that Jesus is on every page of the Bible, even when His name is not called, and if you read a page and don’t find Jesus, you need to read it again, because the Bible is about Jesus. I agree with that. Today, I want you to see some ways that Joseph gives us a picture of ...read more

    What did Joseph’s dreams mean for him? For others? For Israel? And did God give our nation’s founders a similar dream for America?

    From this episode in Joseph's life, we learn that God is always with us, God can help us grow through our suffering, and we learn that there is a better day coming.

     | 7,099 views

    We have all been recipients of grace. We are to exercise grace. Joseph gives us a great example of a man who did just that.

    Outside the Lord Himself, Joseph is one of the best examples of the Bible characters for acting right and having the right kind of attitudes in bad situations. Joseph had some bad things happen to him, but he just kept on doing right and thinking right. His brothers were jealous of him, and they ...read more

    Why did God allow Joseph to suffer as he did? Why not show his love for this great hero of the faith by removing him from all the difficulties of life?

    OPEN: When I was taking my kids home from King’s Island (an amusement park in southern Ohio) yesterday we were listening to a Country Music station that was playing a popular song by a group named “Ricochet”.
