Joseph and the Most Awkward Family Reunion Ever Champions

    • Christianity

In the book of Genesis, the story of Joseph is the ultimate rags to riches story. Sold into slavery by his brothers, Joseph somehow used his God-given gift to catapult himself to the second-most powerful position in all of Egypt. So, what do you do when, years later, the brothers who sold you into slavery come to Egypt looking for help? Is it the ultimate opportunity for revenge? Do you send them away empty-handed? Or do you put into practice the most difficult thing we can be asked to do? This week, we’ll look at the power—and difficulty—of forgiveness.
