There are fewer pains deeper than the pain that can be caused by family. Family members can give life to one another but they can also destroy trust and cause hurt. As Christians, what should we do when family hurts us? Joseph was betrayed by his brothers. Years later his family was in need and Joseph was in a position to either extend forgiveness and help to his family or to respond with revenge and repay his brothers for the pain they caused him. Joseph chose to extend forgiveness and to restore their family. In this sermon we will learn how we can be avenues for forgiveness when dealing with our family dynamics as we seek to restore not to get revenge.
