What an Attitude!

If you had the power to confront those who hurt you, what would you do?

In Genesis 44 and 45, Joseph finally reveals himself to the brothers who betrayed him. After testing their character, Joseph sees genuine change—and responds with overwhelming grace.

In this episode, Stephen Davey unpacks one of the Bible’s most dramatic and emotional moments. Joseph weeps. He embraces. And he forgives. His brothers expect judgment, but receive mercy instead.

Stephen explores why Joseph’s attitude matters so deeply. You’ll discover how forgiveness flows from a heart that sees God at work in every detail of life. Joseph understood that what others meant for evil, God meant for good. That perspective gave him both humility and security—and it empowered him to show compassion to those who once betrayed him.

You’ll also learn how to recognize genuine repentance, why bitterness holds us back, and how trusting God’s sovereignty allows you to love others even through pain.

Whether you’re facing conflict, unresolved hurt, or simply struggling to move on, this episode will give you biblical hope and practical wisdom. It’s a powerful reminder that the pathway to peace doesn’t begin with payback—it begins with perspective.
