Three lessons on the life of Joseph from a sermon series called: Walking with God Through Suffering. Joseph is an example for us on how to handle suffering, adversity and discouragement.

Joseph–Dealing with Disappointment and Discouragement (Genesis 37)

Joseph–Transformed Through Suffering (Genesis 42–45)

Joseph–Choosing a Heart of Forgiveness Rather than Bitterness (Genesis 50:20)

But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive. (Genesis 50:20)

A note of thanks to brother David Banning for his thought provoking lessons that encouraged me to study the life Joseph.
