      <description>How do you respond when those who have hurt you are now at your mercy? As Joseph&#8217;s story concludes, we find him in a position to take revenge against his brothers. Yet his example teaches that forgiveness isn&#8217;t a sign of weakness; it&#8217;s a sign of strength. Instead of looking back, Joseph chose to look up.</description>

      <description>The story of Joseph opens like no other story-abandoned by his brothers, thrown in a well, sold into slavery, falsely accused of rape, and sent to prison.
