Joseph's life was one of struggle and blessing. He experienced the blessing of God's presence as he suffered. He also faced great temptation and found God's grace to be sufficient in it. We have much to learn from how Jospeh dealt with temptation.

How do you respond with God's plans aren't your plans? Joseph, his brothers, and his father, Jacob, all answer this question in different ways. Their examples help us think through the way that we answer it when things don't go as well as we planned them in our lives.

The beginning of Jospeh's story is about a the bad fruit of jealousy in his brothers' lives. They despise Jospeh because Jacob, their father, loved Joseph more than the rest of them.

In this week's edition of The Wednesday Bible Study, we discuss what it means to affirm that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary. This reality makes Jesus unique as a person and the one in whom we can have hope.

Joseph's story is one of overcoming adversity and trusting a sovereign God. He has much to say to us as he overcomes the dysfunction of his family and childhood through faith in God. Will you trust God like Joseph did?

We believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. But, what does that mean? What is the reason for our belief?

Joseph is one of the first Old Testament stories we learn after being introduced to the Christian faith. He is forerunner of Jesus and reveals some of the great themes of the Gospels. In this first message, we talk about his faith, his commitment to his family, and his desire to return home to the land of God's provision.

I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of Heaven and Earth. Join us as we think through what this affirmation means.

Jesus told his disciples that they needed to die to themselves in order to follow him and be a part of his kingdom. Why is this self-denial so important? Paul tells us that it's important because without it we cannot live in Christ eternally.
