Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Jul 6, 2022

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Aug 11, 2022

The life of Joseph, son of Jacob, is one of the most interesting in the Bible. This message is mostly a summary of his life, from slave to sovereign to sustainer. Don't we all wish there were more Josephs!

Introduction: What comes to mind when you think about Joseph, son of Jacob? Many of us, including me, tend to think first of his “coat of many colors” and his dreams.

The Joseph Factor

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Apr 23, 2022

In this sermon we look at a very special anointing on Joseph's life, that God wants to release on us today. Joseph had it, and we need it. All we have to do is ask for it.

Joseph: A Dreamer In Prison Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 12, 2022

Joseph did not need to wait until he was standing before Pharaoh and put in charge of the whole land. Faithfulness to God is always the right path. Joseph needed to trust God the whole time he was the forgotten prisoner. And he did!

There are so many aspects to the story of Joseph. He is the favorite son of the Patriarch Jacob. His brothers burn with jealousy and hatred toward him because his ten older brothers know he is the favored one of his father. The special ornamented coat Jacob gave Joseph made that evident. The Joseph ...read more
