Joseph | Part 6 | Pastor Jacob Howell

<p><em><strong>In part 6 of “Joseph,” the message explores how God lovingly confronts the unresolved issues in our lives that He intends to redeem. Just as a car&#39;s warning light should not be ignored, we cannot simply bury our past and expect it to heal on its own. Through the reunion of Joseph and his brothers, the sermon reveals that God sometimes uses pressure to expose the guilt or pain we have learned to live with. This biblical discipline is not a sign of God&#39;s rejection, but of a loving Father refusing to leave His children unchanged.</strong></em></p><p><em><strong>The story highlights Judah offering to take Benjamin&#39;s place as a slave, demonstrating that true repentance goes beyond feeling sorry—it is a distinct change in direction when faced with a familiar choice. Ultimately, Judah&#39;s sacrifice points forward to Jesus, who took our place to offer us forgiveness and a transformed life.</strong></em></p><p><br></p><p>Welcome to our podcast of Merge.Church in Van Buren, Arkansas, led by Pastor Jacob Howell.
