    Joseph was stirring up the anger of his brothers because he was a tattletale. Already the seeds of strife and discord are being sold between Joseph and his brothers with this bad report he brought about them.

    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?

    Mean? They Took My Coat!

     | 3,700 views

    There were 10 step-brothers, and they hated their step-brother. They stripped away Joseph's coat of many colors. They could not strip away the blessings. God replaced the coat of many colors with a new coat of authority and a ring of gold... the dreams came true.

    THEY TOOK MY COAT! GOD DID NOT EXPLAIN THIS STRIPPING AWAY TO ME? THE DREAMER COMES?

    Mission Possible

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 24, 2023
     | 2,577 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

     | 7,919 views

    The beautiful story of Joseph has attracted a lot of attention through the years. Andrew Lloyd Weber thought so highly of the story that he developed the story of Joseph into a Broadway musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

    If you think you’re job is hard, think about this… Just like an NFL quarterback, NASA will schedule the launch of a rocket in an open window. A launch window is determined for each rocket and the window has several factors. Imagine the complications in attempting to place a land rover on the ...read more

     | 21,459 views

    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. Get ready. I’m sending you to them.” “I’m ready,” Joseph replied. Then Israel said to him, “Go and see how ...read more

    The Forgiveness Of Joseph

    Contributed by Kimberly Belken on Aug 30, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,891 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

    It's Time To Get Up--Joseph Got Up Part 1

    Contributed by Rick Gillespie- Mobley on Jun 19, 2020
     | 5,746 views

    Joseph found himself in a number of unjust situations because his brothers envied the privileges of his multicolored coat. We need the dreams of Jesus to overcome racism and prejudice.

    It’s Time To Get Up—Joseph Got Up Genesis 37:12-36 Matthew 18:21-35 How many of you have asked that question, “Lord how many times should I forgive? How many times should I put up with this?

    God Manages His Vineyard Well

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 18, 2025

    Jesus reworks the old parable of the vineyard to fit the new barbarism. He directs the moral at the human vineyard managers, the religious and secular men who treat the Law and Temple as their personal fiefdom.

    Friday of the Second Week of Lent 2025 St. Matthew’s Gospel is moving toward its climax, which is called Holy Week. Frequently we see Jesus crossing swords verbally with his adversaries. Jesus was an out-of-towner, considered a religious zealot and “hick” by the secular and religious authorities ...read more
