A father believes his son is gone forever, then suddenly he is standing face to face with him again. Genesis 46 gives us one of the most tender scenes in Scripture: Jacob arriving in Egypt and Joseph wrapping his arms around him, weeping for a ...

Genesis 45: The Big Reveal
The moment Joseph says, “I am Joseph,” everything changes. Genesis 45 isn’t just a dramatic reunion story. It’s a masterclass in forgiveness, God’s providence, and what it looks like to lead with a healed heart instead of a wounded ego.
Genesis 44: Judah Steps Up
A silver cup goes missing, the youngest brother takes the blame, and the family’s old wounds rip open again. Genesis 44 isn’t just a dramatic plot twist in the Joseph story, it’s a hard test that reveals whether Joseph’s brothers have actually ...
Genesis 43: Do It For Benny
The people who hurt you don’t just disappear, do they? Sometimes they show back up at the worst possible moment, and you have to decide what kind of person you’re going to be next. Genesis 43 drops us right into that tension as Joseph stands fa...
Genesis 42: Facing Your Past
The moment you think life is finally stable, the past walks back into the room. That’s the gut punch of Genesis 42, where Joseph is thriving as Egypt’s governor and then comes face to face with the very brothers who sold him into slavery. They ...
Genesis 41: From the Prison To the Palace
A man wakes up in a prison with no control over his future and goes to sleep in a palace with the weight of a nation on his shoulders. That is Genesis 41, and it’s one of the clearest pictures in Scripture of how fast God can change circumstanc...
Genesis 40: Forgotten But Not Forsaken
Somebody helped you, and you remembered forever. Somebody else helped you, and you forgot by Friday. Genesis 40 puts that tension right on the page, and we feel it through Joseph’s story in Pharaoh’s prison. We follow the moment two powerful me...
Genesis 39: Faithfulness In The Fire
The hardest spiritual test is not temptation in public, it’s pressure in private when doing the right thing costs you. Today we open Genesis 39 and sit with Joseph in the most frustrating kind of moment: he honors God, refuses compromise, and s...
Genesis 38: The Levirate Law
Genesis 38 is one of those Bible chapters people skip because it’s uncomfortable, complicated, and honestly a little shocking. We don’t skip it. We read the story of Judah and Tamar straight through, then slow down to unpack what’s actually hap...
Genesis 37: The Spoiled Dreamer
A favored son. A loud dream. A family powder keg. Genesis 37 opens the Joseph story with a question that still hits home: what do you do when God gives you a glimpse of your future, but your present is full of tension, envy, and broken relation...
Genesis 36: Esau's Family Tree
A chapter packed with hard-to-pronounce names might be the most practical Bible reading you do all week. We’re walking through Genesis 36, Esau’s family tree, and uncovering why Scripture preserves genealogies instead of trimming them out. What...
Genesis 35: The Celebration of Death
Death shows up in Genesis 35 with no warning, and it forces a question most of us would rather avoid: do we face loss with fear, denial, or a deeper kind of hope? We follow Jacob back to Bethel, the place where God first met him, and we watch r...
Genesis 34: Don't Mess With Family
Genesis 34 is the kind of chapter that makes you stop and say, “How is this even in the Bible?” Dinah is violated, her attacker tries to turn it into a marriage arrangement, and the fallout spirals into deception, bloodshed, and a family crisis...
Genesis 33: Awkward Family Reunion
A reunion can feel like a courtroom when you know you’ve hurt someone. Jacob heads home with that weight on his shoulders, and Genesis 33 doesn’t let us look away from the hardest part of spiritual growth: facing the people who remember the old...
Genesis 32: Wrestling With God
Esau is coming with 400 men, Jacob is sure payback is finally here, and the best he can do is split the family, send a trail of extravagant gifts, and pray like someone who has run out of options. Genesis 32 is not a tidy faith story. It is fea...
Genesis 31: The Great Escape
Some Bible stories feel polished. Genesis 31 is not one of them and that’s exactly why it hits home. We’re walking through Jacob’s breaking point with Laban: suspicion rises, wages have been manipulated for years, and the only way Jacob can ima...
Genesis 30: Family Feud
Genesis 30 is the kind of chapter people don’t expect to find in the Bible and it is exactly the kind of chapter that can rebuild your faith when life feels complicated. I’m Pastor Brandon, and today we’re walking through a story packed with ri...
Genesis 29: I would Do Anything For Love
A wedding night switch. Fourteen years of work. Two sisters living in the shadow of comparison. Genesis 29 isn’t a neat, inspirational story, but it is honest about what family chaos can do, and even more honest about what God can do inside it....
Genesis 28: The House of God
Jacob is running, unsure of what comes next, and carrying the weight of a messy family story when God does something shocking: He shows up. We walk through Genesis 28 and the moment Jacob falls asleep with a stone for a pillow and wakes up to a...
Genesis 27: The Great Blessing Heist
A blessing gets stolen, a family splinters, and one tiny detail exposes the whole con: the voice doesn’t match. We’re in Genesis 27 today, breaking down the moment Jacob and Rebekah pull off what we call the “Great Blessing Heist” and how Isaac...
Genesis 26: Here We Go Again
Isaac’s story in Genesis 26 is comforting for a surprising reason: it’s messy. We watch him replay Abraham’s worst instinct, fear, by lying about Rebekah, and we see how quickly a half-smart plan can turn into public consequences. But we also s...
Genesis 25: The Most Expensive Bowl Of Soup Ever
A single meal can expose what we truly value, and Genesis 25 doesn’t let us look away. We start with the sweeping handoff from Abraham to Isaac, tracing how a family becomes nations through Keturah’s descendants, Ishmael’s line, and the covenan...
Genesis 24: A Match Made By Heaven
A stranger shows up at a well and asks for a drink. Minutes later, a young woman is hauling what amounts to hundreds of gallons of water for ten camels, and the future of a biblical family line is changing in real time. Genesis 24 is one of the...
Genesis 23: The Death of a Hero
Sarah’s story can be easy to overlook until you slow down and feel the weight of Genesis 23. Abraham gets the headline moments, but Sarah lives the long obedience: leaving home, trusting a promise she didn’t personally hear, and staying faithfu...
Genesis 22: The Most Uncomfortable Camping Trip Ever
A father. A promised son. A three-day walk toward a command that makes no sense. Genesis 22 doesn’t let us keep faith in the safe and abstract, so we slow down and trace every step of Abraham and Isaac on the road to Moriah, including the line ...
