TOMORROW MORNING, we continue our message series, “The Gospel According to Joseph.” We’ll be looking at Genesis 43:15-45:7 and seeing how and why Joseph tests his brothers. In some significant ways, it’s similar to how God tests us and our faith in him. You’ll be encouraged as we learn some invaluable lessons about what the Lord has in mind for us in everything from life’s inconveniences to its full-on trials. This would be a great Sunday to invite a friend to join you at Gold Coast!
