When Dreams Come True (7 of 7)
Series: Dreams and Detours

Genesis 42:1-9
In 1918, Tulsa, Oklahoma, a baby was born, a baby who at a young age, just a young teenager, and this man grew up. His name was Paul.

They were wonderful dreams for Joseph. Not so good for his brothers. They didn't really like those dreams, his ten older brothers. But we know that Joseph's dreams met detours, major detours. One of them was when his brothers sold him as a slave. That's a major detour when you're 17 years old. And he went from having this great dr ...
