    Too often, we don’t do more for others because we just don’t believe it will make much difference. We’re just adding a “drop in the bucket” we say. Joseph may have had no idea how much he was changing history—but I’m glad he chose to risk and offer what

    “Do for Others What They Cannot Do for Themselves” GENESIS 41 Joseph and Pharaoh Joseph was an inmate, until Pharaoh needed what he had to offer. Joseph moved from prisoner to prime minister in Egypt because he did for Pharaoh what the leader could not do for himself. His gift made him ...read more

    Joseph was a key figure in Egyptian history, but was he Imhotep?

     | 5,272 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

    Joseph literally "inherited the earth" because of his attitude of meekness. But how did Joseph show meekness and how can we learn from his example?
