We're back following the journey of Joseph from the pit to the palace. He is God's man for the hour, until one person threatens to undo everything. Will they get away with it? 

Like Joseph, our lives are full of ups and downs. How do we trust God, much less glorify Him, when things take a turn for the worse? What do we do when we have to choose between obedience to Him and saving our own skin? It's not as far-fetched as it sounds-- in fact, it's ripped from today's headlines.

We're leaving Joseph behind--just for one week--to take a look at the story of an incredible woman who paves the way for the coming of Christ. 

Tamar is more than a brave woman who overcomes the odds. She is hand-picked by God to be in the ancestral line of Jesus. She's a beacon of righteousness in a sea of predatory men. And her story has been preserved for our good.

This Sunday we dive back into our final series in the book of Genesis--the End of the Beginning. Over the next nine weeks we're following the story of our hero called Joseph from the bottom of a pit all the way to the palace. 

What is it that made Joseph so special and successful? If you're thinking that God has something to do with it--you just might be on to something. You might even come away wondering if anything is ever really left to random chance.

Be honest. How much time do you spend every day scrolling social media? My guess is if you’re average, it’s more than two hours. So then the question is— how is social media influencing you, and is it possible that God is calling to be an influencer on social media? - I know how it sounds. God isn’t calling anybody to be the Christian version of the Kardashians. He is calling us to plant and cultivate a Gospel culture of grace, gentleness, and hope wherever we go — even online.

Prophecy. It's not a word we use every day. But when Jesus kept His promise to send the Holy Spirit to believers, men and women everywhere started to prophesy. They received bits of knowledge or wisdom straight from God and then delivered them to their intended audience.

What's been your experience of prophecy? Have you ever received a word of prophecy from someone else? Or passed on a word of prophecy to someone else? Maybe this all sounds really strange and new. That's ok. The Bible is full of teaching on this way we can use our words to build people in ways that last forever.

We worship the God of all encouragement, and we proclaim the Gospel as the ultimate encouragement. So then how do we grow in the art of encouraging people in a world where loneliness is so common?

What do you think is the hardest part of the body to control in order to bring maximum glory to God? The Bible has a clear answer. It’s the tiny muscle located just behind your teeth—your tongue.

We are back in Genesis to wrap up the story of Jacob. We'll look especially at the one thing that Jacob is still doing right now. Hint: it's the same thing we'll be doing along with him forever. And we'll unpack what our faith has to do with the next generation of worshippers.

Hear Tyler share our gospel hope despite a very sad glimpse into the devastating consequences of "private" sin, lust, and misogyny from Genesis 34. We'll hear how the site of one of the most outrageous acts of sexual violence in the Bible becomes a site of redemption and hope for women and men alike.
