Sabbath, Study, Serve 

Taking the Sermon Into Our Week 

Scripture of the Week: Genesis 37:3-8, 17b-22, 26-34; 50:15-21

From the Sermon:

Israel, “loved __________ more than any other of his children, because he was the son of his old age”.

Jospeh was more than a little ____________.

_________ shows up again and again and again and scripture, just like opportunities to show __________ keep showing up in our lives.

Jospeh had to be in a place where his heart was _______________ enough to extend forgiveness in the first place.

Sometimes we may _______________________________ but we don’t really mean it.

Joseph becomes a man of deep __________________________________.

Reflection Questions:

Who was most changed by this story and how?

Are we willing to be molded and made malleable by the work of the Holy Spirit so we, too, can show profound grace and forgiveness?

Prayer:

Lord, we confess that often we pray for others to be transformed, without wanting transformation in our own lives. Make us people who are easily molded and shaped by you and you alone, we pray, O Lord. Amen.
