Joseph, A Remarkable Father

Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Jun 11, 2007

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

Life Story Of Joseph

Contributed by Joey Nelson on May 10, 2006

our story this week is about a guy who had no supernatural strength. He had no halos. He never performed miracles. But he had a great heart of grace. The Joseph story is quite a lengthy story (Gen.37 – 45), so allow me to summarize. The dramatic narrative

Contributed by Steve Greene on Nov 29, 2006

What was Joseph thinking that night outside the stable. Have you ever thought about it? What would have been going through your mind? This message challenges us to do what Joseph did. He obeyed God even when it didn’t make sense.

What was Joseph Thinking?

Christmas According To Joseph

Joseph’s part in the Christmas story exemplifies a new kind of righteousness.

In nativity scenes he stands silently next to the manger in which the baby Jesus is placed. His name is Joseph and some might think that he plays an unimportant role in the Christmas story.
