    Mission Possible

     | 2,579 views

    Peter could only do the impossible as long as he focused on Jesus instead of on his surroundings.

    As sometimes happens, this sermon took a turn I had not expected once I really got into it. Not a very big one, mind you, but I would up focusing on the gospel lesson instead of Paul’s letter to the Galatians. I do like, when I can, to tie the three lessons together, and these three seemed to be ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Thirty-Seven. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that Joseph tells his dreams to his brothers who sell him into slavery. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 37 Joseph relates his dreams to his brethren: they envy him; and, conspiring his death, first cast him into a ...read more

    "When ‘bad Luck’ Knocks Us Down” Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Apr 4, 2023
     | 2,129 views

    The story of Joseph being sold into slavery provides a compelling example of moments when it seems like "bad luck" has come our way when God may be up to something else.

    WHY DID THAT HAPPEN? There are moments when we feel like bad luck knocked us down. - We will get into the specifics that this passage details as we go through the sermon, but this is obviously a passage with some “just-so-happened” moments. - To use the common vernacular, someone might say, “Oh, ...read more

    The causes of envy: circumstances, insecurity, spiritual vacuum. Solutions to envy: Take responsibility, find security in Christ, embrace our purpose in God's plan.

    GREEN WITH ENVY, RIPE FOR TROUBLE—Genesis 37 A few years ago, a shampoo commercial on TV featured a beautiful woman, with long flowing hair, saying, “Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful.” Why would anyone hate a person who is beautiful, or charming, or successful, or popular, or rich, or smart, ...read more

    The story of Joseph is the display of the providential power of God to to accomplish his good purposes. Let’s consider what teaches about us teaches about us, about God, and what it all means for us.

    Genesis 37:12-36 Evil Intent, Good Intent 10/2/16 D. Marion Clark Introduction “As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.” So Joseph assuages the fears of his brothers after the death of Jacob, and so he articulates the providence of God.

    There are two different aspects of the Christian life. I call it the academic side and then also the experiential side.

    Who Pushed Me?

    Every one of us has been through situations that you wouldn’t have willingly accepted if you had the opportunity to choose, yet they later turned out to work for your greater good.

    Like Joseph in the Bible, some of us need an extra push to realize our God given dreams and potentials. A story is told of a rich man who had a beautiful daughter ready for marriage. The father of the young lady organized a contest for his daughter. He sent word to his townsmen inviting all those ...read more

    Joseph’s story, as told in the Bible, is a beautiful illustration of how God’s purpose can be found in our pain.

    Joseph in the Pit Genesis 37:12-36 His brothers had gone to pasture their father’s flocks at Shechem. Israel said to Joseph, “Your brothers, you know, are pasturing the flocks at Shechem.

    The Forgiveness Of Joseph

    Contributed by Kimberly Belken on Aug 30, 2020

     | 6,896 views

    Though Joseph's brothers intended to harm him, God intended to work through their actions for good. Ultimately this truth allowed Joseph to forgive his brothers. Forgiveness may sometimes be a decision we have to make but we can do so trusting that God will work good through it.

    Like last week, we have skipped ahead a few generations in Genesis to get to today’s reading. So to quickly summarize, Abraham, whose deep desire for a son we heard about in last week’s reading, fathered a son by the name of Isaac. Isaac was the father of two children, Esau and Jacob. Jacob or ...read more

    Joseph was thrown into a pit on two separate occasions. However, as a result of his faithfulness during those circumstances, he was delivered from the pain and drudgery of his pit experiences to go on and live in a palace!

    He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps. - King David(1) Do you ever feel like you’re in a deep, dark pit with no way out?
