    When Your Dreams Fall Into The Pit Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Oct 14, 2025
     | 97 views

    Like Israel sent Joseph to his brothers because of his love and concern for his rebellious children, God sent His son Jesus out of love for a world that is lost and distant from Him because of their sin. God is concerned for both your daily and eternal welfare.

On his journey back home to Hebron, he endured deep sorrow — the rape of his daughter, Dinah, the shame of his sons’ violent revenge, and the loss of ...read more
