Cup of Hope: Truth: Habit

May 11, 2022 • Stephanie Winslow • Genesis 20

Abram now named Abraham, falls into the same habit of lying to protect. In Genesis 20, we find Abraham and Sarah moving to the Negev. As a part of ensuring safe passage through the land Abraham again tells that Sarah is his sister - ignoring the fact that she is his wife. Again a plague was on the land and the people feared the Lord, but many were harmed because of Abrahams decision to repeat the same half-truth.

Open your Bibles and turn to Genesis 20:1-18 and be filled up full to overflowing with God's great promise of Hope!

Cup of Hope: Truth: Intent to Harm

May 25, 2022 • Stephanie Winslow • Genesis 37:17–33

In the story of Joseph we meet his brothers who are so jealous of him it drives them to sell Joseph into slavery and then deceived their dad, making up a story about Joseph being mauled by a wild animal. This deception comes back to haunt them years later as they meet Joseph face to face in their greatest desperation - food - and Joseph is the one who holds their future in his hands. We see Joseph, one who could have allowed bitterness to be planted deep into his soul rise to the occasion allowing God to be glorified and trusting that God had a plan all along - to save his family from the famine. Read with me and let's study together the brothers intent to harm Joseph, yet how God used it for good! Genesis 37:17-33 Cup of Hope: A gulp of God's word to plant seeds of greater faith and hope.
