My Life for the Kingdom Robert J Koester

Joseph was God's gift at a crucial time in the history of his kingdom. Joseph's family would soon resettle in Egypt. There they would grow into a large nation, ready to take permanent possession of the land of Canaan, which God had promised to give them as Abraham's descendants. But Joseph's family was in spiritual chaos. Father Jacob favored Joseph, and his other ten sons hated Joseph for it. Murder was in their hearts. They sold Joseph into slavery and told their father that Joseph had been killed by a wild animal. How could such a family remain intact? How could God use them to bless the world? The answer is found in the story of Joseph.
