- Pastor Justin showed from Genesis 37 that God’s good plan will not be thwarted (despite sin & its’ consequence). How did this truth encourage your faith?
- Did anything from our time in Genesis 37 challenge you to think differently about the Joseph story? If so, what?
- How does it encourage your faith to see someone suffering for righteousness? How does Joesph help us learn how to suffer well (especially when we are suffering for righteousness)? How can you tell if you are suffering for righteousness vs. suffering the consequences for sin?
- Joseph’s brothers were corrupted by a bitter jealousy and murderous hate. How can these tendencies creep into our hearts today? What should we do when we see these desires forming in our hearts?
