    E47 - Genesis 50 - The End of the Beginning

    As his life draws to a close in Egypt, Jacob makes one last request to his son Joseph: when I die, take me home to be buried with my ancestors. Jospeh honors his father's dying wish, but the family of Israel are not the only ones who make the long journey to pay their last respects. Today on Enstoried, God's incredible vision for the future of the promised land. Jacob and Joseph lead the way at the end of Genesis, but who is following after them? And what would it really take to get not only Israel there in the end, but every nation in the world?

    E46 - Genesis 48 & 49 - The 12 Tribes: Where Are They Now?

    In Genesis, the blessing of one's father is a greatly desired thing. Jacob and Esau were rivals in seeking it from their father Isaac. When it comes time for Jacob to bless his twelve sons, who will come away with the lion's share? Today on Enstoried, the future of Israel, as told through the blessings given by Jacob. Some tribes will rise and others will fall, not because of their birthright or who Jacob loves most, but because of who they are already in the process of becoming through God.

    E45 - Genesis 46 & 47 - How Joseph Saved the World

    After putting his brothers through a test to see if they've truly changed, Joseph reveals his true identity to them and they begin to reconcile. It's a relief, but the famine that ended up bringing them together is far from over, and everyone isn't out of the woods yet. Today on Enstoried, the family of Israel moves to Egypt. Canaan is still the promised land, but God is presently working out a plan through Joseph to not only advance the promises made to Abraham about preserving his family, but to save the nations through the blessings of Israel.

    E44 - Genesis 44 & 45 - Moment of Truth

    Our pasts can come back to haunt us. At least, that's how Joseph's brothers must have felt when they were caught red-handed leaving Egypt for the second time. But is God really out for justice and to punish them for what they did to Joseph all those years ago? Or does he have something truly great in mind? Today on Enstoried, one final test for the sons of Israel. Taking ownership for what they did to Joseph before God will not end in their being condemned. Instead, it is the only way forward on the path that God has set them for the healing of their family and the maintaining of a promise that God made to their ancestors.

    E43 - Genesis 42 & 43 - Cinderella Story

    Is revenge a dish best served cold, or not at all? When Joseph's deceitful brothers show up in Egypt looking to survive the famine in Canaan, he'll have the chance to decide. Today on Enstoried, Joseph sees his brothers for the first time in 13 years. Like his father Jacob and uncle Esau, they didn't part on the best of terms. But will their reunion end with Joseph taking care of unfinished business, or will it be the beginning of their family becoming whole once again?

    E42 - Genesis 40 & 41 - Dreams Do Come True

    Sometimes, dreams really do come true. But if Joseph is the one telling you what your dreams mean, then they always come true (which can be a good or bad thing). Today on Enstoried, Joseph's ability to interpret dreams earns him more than freedom from prison - it makes him the second most powerful person in all of Egypt. Even though seven years of famine threaten all of the known world, God has put his wise one in a royal position for a time such as this.

    E41 - Genesis 39 - Godspeed

    Joseph son of Jacob was a young man with big dreams. He dreamed that someday he would become like a king with others bowing down before him, but he never dreamed he would end up becoming a slave and a prisoner in the meantime. Today on Enstoried, we return to the story of Joseph. His journey away from home seems to get off to a rough start, and while God is with him and blesses him in the middle of hard circumstances, it is the people that God blesses most at this point in the story that might just surprise you.

    E40 - Genesis 38 - The Lyin' of Judah

    If there is one tribe from Israel that stands out later in the story of the Bible, it's Judah. The whole southern kingdom of Israel is Judah, Jesus himself is called the Lion of Judah. So Judah must have been a great guy, right? Today on Enstoried, an unflattering look at Judah, son of Jacob. He struggles with his integrity in doing right by his family, but lucky for him he's got a very brave daughter-in-law who will go to great lengths to hold Judah accountable and honor her deceased husband.
