Joseph Son Of Jacob

Telling his brothers of a dream that they would bow down to him, made matters even worse, and bad relations between them festered. “Joseph, being seventeen years old, was pasturing the flock with his brothers.

Studies In Genesis: Chapter 40 Series

Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 17, 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 Genesis 39? So Joseph winds up in jail for a crime that he did not commit. This seems to be cruel and ...read more

Joseph: Rejected But Respected Series

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. That’s true, but that’s only part of the story. In fact, Joseph spent several years away from his family in a foreign land, rising ...read more

Leaders Or Servants Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 13, 2016

Do we trust God enough to honor and obey those in authority over us? It's easy to do that when they're good leaders... but what about when they're driven by selfishness and love of power?

Opportunities, Assistance & Amnesia Series

Contributed by Josh Foster on Mar 12, 2014

Sometimes we let our life-circumstances shift our focus away from God’s commands. Circumstances aren’t the prerequisite to letting God's Light shine. We can’t let others’ choices become an excuse for us, as-to-why we don’t let God’s light shine.
