A Family Preserved (Genesis 39, 45, 50)

Joseph's story is the longest narrative in Genesis. It is the story of a dysfunctional family redeemed. God is present with Joseph throughout his difficult journey. He doesn't have an easy life - no would choose this.
But God is with him. God has sent him. God's purposes are realized even though Joseph suffers. How does Joseph come to the place of offering forgiveness and blessing to those who have deeply wounded him?

The stories in Genesis 12-50 are not stories of a chosen family of God that shine with heroic glitter and perfection. These families are messed up. But God's purposes prevail.

A Promise Tested (Genesis 21-22)

God gave Abraham and Sarah a great promise and they finally saw that promise fulfilled. But there was a test... It's startling, and a bit troubling to say the least. But Abraham has come to the place where the hope and wonder that he has in the God who called him, who has blessed him, and who has promised him this son. His faith is strong in the midst of the test.
What God asked of Abraham was a foreshadowing of what God himself in Jesus Christ would do.

A Priest of Righteousness (Genesis 14; Hebrews 7)

Sometimes a character makes an appearance, and you wonder what happened to him. Well, Melchizedek is one of those characters. He gets a total of 3 verses in the story of Abram and then he disappears. He's mentioned once in Psalm 110. But then he makes a roaring comeback in Hebrews 5-7.
What we are tempted to do is fill in the gaps about the story of Melchizedek. What we must do, however, is to focus on the main characters of the story. Genesis 14 is about Abram. Psalm 110 is about the Davidic King. And Hebrews 7 is about how Jesus is greater than Melchizedek.
Gospel Podcasts
Our podcast started out simply as audio sermons from our Sunday services. Recently we've started two additional shows: Gospel Conversations and Gospel Reflections.
In Gospel Conversations, Pastor Doug talks with various missionaries that we support, and people in our congregation as they walk with Jesus.
In Gospel Reflections, Pastor Doug shares thoughts from his study of the Bible. Often this will include excerpts from commentators, church history, or something that speaks to where we are at today.
Our goal here is simple: Helping People Follow Jesus.
