Text:

Genesis 40

Description:
In this week's episode, Matt and Eric discuss Genesis 40 where we find the story of Joseph in prison.  Joseph shows up with kindness towards his fellow prisoners, and even helps interpret dreams for them.  Joseph shows us that even in the "pit", in the dark night of the soul, when we feel like we are at our bottom, when we are forgotten and overlooked, we can still show up and be present and serve others.  Why do we crave being seen?  Why is it so painful when we are overlooked and forgotten?  How does someone show up with kindness and service when they are being forgotten and overlooked?
