All in the Family

From Pit to Prominence

A look at Joseph's family and home life. Joseph came from a dysfunctional family, which included favoritism, deceit, manipulation, and passivity; however, this was not an excuse for Joseph. He knew that what his family meant for evil, God meant for good, and he followed the Lord's plan.
