Bitter jealousy, familial strife, betrayal, and deceit—such conflict could all be pulled straight from today’s headlines. All of this discord is also found in the extraordinary life of Joseph, as recorded in the book of Genesis. From the depths of a pit in the Canaanite wilderness to the height of prosperity in the palaces of Egypt, Joseph’s life reflected resolute courage, character, and devotion to God in the face of despair, hopelessness and fear.

Few stories declare this theme more powerfully than the dramatic account of Joseph, son of Jacob. Through this seminal tale of jealousy, betrayal, faithfulness, and astonishing forgiveness, the Bible invites us to rejoice in God’s divine sovereignty and providential care for those whom He loves.

In our attempt to keep God’s law, we are prone to develop our own rules, regulations, and traditions aimed at earning His favor. When we begin to regard such beliefs as the standard to which other people must subscribe, we may eventually lose sight of the Gospel itself.

As he reached the end of his epistle to the Ephesians, Paul’s specific prayer requests as an ambassador for Christ in chains affirmed his desire to freely proclaim the Gospel with confidence and clarity. When our conviction rests solely in the power of Christ’s name, we stand ready to boldly declare the message and mystery of the Gospel to a dying world.
