We are studying the life of Joseph on Sunday nights this fall! Tonight, Joseph finds himself in prison unfairly, but God begins bringing together events that will eventually change Joseph’s life. Before it all comes together, though, Joseph will face yet another life disappointment…
Tonight we begin a fall Sunday night series on the life of Joseph. Our modern culture is full of bitterness, rage, and revenge.
