Episode 95: A Family Confronts its Brokenness - Genesis 42-44


Listen Later

In this episode we experience the brokenness of Joseph, his brothers, and Jacob as they come face to face after years of separation. In the face of starvation all the sons of Jacob save Benjamin travel to Egypt to procure food and there they come face to face with the brother they betrayed but they do not recognize him. Joseph recognizes them and throughout these chapters we share the pain and sadness of a family torn apart by betrayal, lies, cowardice, and inconsolable grief. We watch a family move from alienation to the hope of redemption and restoration. What can we learn from our relationships from this struggling family? Why has God told us this story if there is no hope for reconciliation? Can we hear ourselves in their experiences? Please join us.
