Genesis ends with the story of Joseph.  As with the other stories in Genesis, there is goodness and conflict.  In the end, Joseph chooses to forgive the harm intended and done by his brothers.  Joseph symbolizes redemption as he forgives his brothers.  Our origin story includes the redemptive power of Jesus Christ, rooted in God’s amazing grace and unconditional love.  God’s intentions have been since the beginning.
