[This is a re-recording of the live message] The dramatic unfolding of Joseph's encounter with his brothers exposes the hurts and pains of Joseph as he is faced with his brothers many years after they sold him into slavery. Now the second in command of the world's greatest empire, Joseph's actions and attitudes betray the reality that his present dysfunction is a manifestation of past family hurts and pains. In the end, Joseph's choice of believing in God saves his soul, redeems his family, and preserves his calling. For us, may we, too, believe in God's purpose and plan for our own salvation and redemption.
