Our culture tells us to do whatever we want, but what if what we want to do causes others to stumble? Paul addresses this issue with the church of Corinth; and Paul tells them to love each other. Sometimes this kind of love looks like not doing what we want to do. 

Paul addresses divorce with the church in Corinth. In their culture, marriage, and divorce were contractual agreements between two families. Because of this, the church asks Paul if they should marry, divorce, or remain single.   

If you are looking for your first step in how to make disciples become a Hope Dealer. Let’s bring hope everywhere we go as we live, love, and go like Jesus. 

Paul addresses the church of Corinth for their open acceptance of sin. He even tells them to remove someone from the church! Does this mean we kick all sinners out of the church? 

As believers, we should be seeking out other people to live life with. People who will hold us accountable and address our sins with a call to confession and repentance. 

The push of our culture today is division, but as Christians, we are to push back in unity. Paul shows us how to live, love, and go like Jesus in the push and pull of our culture. 

When the famine hit Egypt, Joesph had the opportunity to get revenge on his family; but instead, he glorified God's divine plan to save the known world from starvation. Joesph gets a second chance at revenge when his father dies. God can take our worst and use it for His good plan. 

Was Joseph the actual firstborn? What does that even mean? As we continue to read Joseph's story, we see how Joseph acts when his brothers come to Egypt for aid. 

As we continue Joesph's story, we read that Pharaoh has an odd dream, and the cup cupbearer remembers his promise to Joesph. What can we learn from someone who believes's he's god, and a forgotten promise?

We are to reflect God’s character rather than resigning ourselves to our own sinful character. Let’s look to Jesus for who we should be.
