Episode description

The favored son ends up enslaved and then imprisoned, only to end up using his God-given ability to rise to prominence in Pharaoh's Egypt and save his family when famine strikes. It's the story of Joseph, and it's another story from the Bible that is not only full of dramatic reversals, but also that forces us to rethink what it means to have God at work in our lives. In this episode of Crazy Faith Talk, colleagues in ministry Steve and Natalie explore this story and how it challenges a lot of pop theology's mindset that "good things" are a sign of God's approval while "bad things" happening must be a sign of God's judgment. See how Joseph's story challenges that thinking and gives us a better way of seeing God in the midst of our troubles, on this week's Crazy Faith Talk!
