This study looks at how character develops in believers
You'll have a new way of looking at the meaning of Joseph's story
Aaron Lewendon
Bibles & Bible Study Specialist
Joseph went through some hard times; sold into slavery, falsely accused of rape and imprisoned for many years. Yet Joseph was able to live in forgiveness and hope, and God did great things each step of the way. As we read his story we will find our own place in the journey to seeing God's dreams fulfilled in and through us. Nine studies for individuals and small groups.
This revised Lifebuilder Bible Study features additional questions for starting group discussions and for meeting God in personal reflection, together with expanded leader's notes and an extra 'Now or Later' section in each study.
