The Brutal Journey Towards Reconciliation - Part 1 (Gen. 42) [Jay Thomas]

Chapel Hill Bible Church - Sermons

Forgiving someone or people who have sinned against us deeply is one of the hardest human actions. Are you there? Is there someone or a list of people that you cannot imagine being able to forgive? And, do you struggle with guilt because of something you did? Repenting without knowing the outcome is also a really huge test of faith. This passage is the first step in a long and brutal journey of reconciliation between Joseph and his brothers. The story has a good ending, but know this - this story is not just about a family coming back together, but also the formation of a nation, the continued faithfulness of God to keep his promises, and the gospel in the key of Genesis 42!
