Are you ready to die?

Since death entered creation at the fall of man in Genesis 3, men and women of faith have had to wrestle with how to live by faith in the light of death. As Jacob came to the end of his life, after he blesses his sons, he makes one final request to be buried with his fathers in the land God promised to his fathers and his children. But what will Jacob's death mean for Joseph and his brothers in light of their past? And what legacy of faith will Joseph leave at the end of his own life?

This week we finish our journey through the book of Genesis, and read through the account of the end of life for Jacob and Joseph. We'll see the legacy of faith that both men left behind them in light of their own deaths, and learn how death is not the end for the people who place their faith in the promises of God. And we'll ask ourselves, with such great promises from God, are we living in light of this temporary world or in light of eternity?
