“Our culture teaches us that succeeding, or ascending, is that time in our lives when the stars and planets align allowing everyone to finally see what we have always suspected was true. Why would it surprise me to study Joseph’s life and discover something very different, namely that God allows us to ascend so that we can bless others?”
“When the teenage Joseph revealed his dreams to his brothers, he could have never imagined that those same brothers would have betrayed him, that he would have to be a slave and then a prisoner, and ultimately, that the price tag on that dream would be so exorbitant.”
