Joseph: A Visioneering Faith (5 of 8)
Series: Im-POSSIBLE -Experiencing a Faith that Works

Hebrews 11:22


If you have your Bible, I want you to join me in Hebrews 11 as we continue our study on the heroes of the faith to learn from these imperfect people the different facets of faith to help us to live a faithful life.

In fact, some of them royally blew it - either getting ahead of God, or at times, getting away from God. But here's the thing - in the end, when it mattered most - they each trusted God.

Most of us have heard of Joseph. We've heard of his coat of many colors and prophesying dreams. We've heard how he was betrayed by his brothers then falsely imprisoned for fleeing from Potiphar's wife.
