God Is Faithful Series

Contributed by Duane Brown on Feb 11, 2006

4th sermon on the life of Joseph as inspired by the writings of Chuck Swindoll

For the most part our study of Joseph to this point has been rather sobering. Granted he was the favored son, but disappointment, abandonment, mistreatment, false accusations and slavery has since plagued his life. Last week we watched as he interpreted the dream of the cup bearer and knew for ...read more

Winning With People: Do For Others What They Cannot Do For Themselves Series

Contributed by John Maxwell on Aug 10, 2006

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 The Grand Vizier Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Oct 16, 2006

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

Joseph the Grand Vizier (Genesis 41) 1. The sermons and presentations in this series will be, by nature, uneven. Some weeks, more Bible less Egyptology. Other weeks vice-versa. I could solve this by speaking for two hours at a shot, thus giving us a balanced mixture. Some instinct in me tells ...read more

The Movers And Shakers

Contributed by Andrew Drummond on Nov 19, 2006

I think it is in the heart of everyone to want to be someone of influence. What people aren’t interested in is God’s shaping process for those he chooses to have influence. If we want to be movers and shakers for the Kingdom then we need to be ready to be

When I was in year 6 we had a public speaking competition. I wrote a story of myself having a dream where all my friends and I were in a gang and we all had these really cool names and we were the toughest.

For most of us our natural bent is disorganisation, not organisation. But organisation sets us free & helps us create more time for the things that really matter.

Studies In Genesis: Chapter 41 Series

Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 18, 2011

This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. What happened in Chapter 40? At the end of chapter 40 where do we leave Joseph? Romans 5:3 And not only [so], but we glory in ...read more
