FAITH AND FAMILY:  JOSEPH FORGIVES HIS BROTHERS

SERMON DESCRIPTION

Joseph revealed himself to his brothers with tears, showing how guilt can fill us with fear. Yet he reminded them that God loved them and was working through every moment of his life. Just as God sent Jesus to redeem us and offers unconditional grace, Joseph extended grace to his brothers and called them to share what God had done. In the end, Joseph affirmed his forgiveness with open arms, pointing to the greater forgiveness and joyful homecoming God promises to all who are saved.
