Genesis 39:19-40:23

Young people often have hopes & dreams about what life will look like. At times, hopes & dreams even turn into expectations. Life, though, often has very unexpected twists & turns, detours and bypasses. One Bible character that especially reveals this is Joseph. At the age of 17, he received a couple dreams which somewhat cryptically revealed something about his future. As a result, there had to be expectations of how that would look and feel. There is no way, however, that he could envision how the pathway to fulfillment would look.

We continue our journey through Joseph’s life. We will take a look at Joseph in prison and, in the process, see some surprising and encouraging aspects of God working in and through him.
