This sermon explores the challenging Christian mandate to love one's enemies, using the story of Joseph forgiving his brothers (Genesis 45) as a practical illustration of Jesus's teachings (Luke 6). This love is an act of will to do good, bless, and pray rather than an emotion. This counter-intuitive command is possible only by seeing God's larger purpose in difficult situations and relying on the power of Christ's own example of forgiveness.

Fear not, little flock. 🐑 Sometimes the most offensive images in the Bible, like God coming as a thief, carry the most comfort. Watch as we explore why being robbed of our earthly idols is actually the beginning of our eternal inheritance.
