Episode Details

We have been looking at the life of Joseph and his troubled family in the book of Genesis. In this week’s episode, while Joseph’s family struggles with their guilt from the past, Joseph finally reveals his true identity. As Joseph stayed faithful to God during the most difficult times of his life, God was helping him grow into the man he would need to be to save the world from starvation and be reunited with his estranged family. Come to Rockwell Church this Sunday to be encouraged to be confident in your new identity in Christ and make a difference in the world. - Pastor Chris Teien

“Surrender to God and Live in Love”

Quit pushing back against God’s ways, because he is working for your joy,
even when you don’t see it and donate your life to loving purposes. —Secrets to a Happy Life Series

#1 Surrender your COMFORT as you walk with God (Genesis 46:3-4)

#2 Surrender your EXPECTATIONS as you are directed by God (Genesis 48:10-20, Col 1:12)

#3 Surrender to God’s perfect PLAN (Genesis 50:15-18, Romans 8:28)

#4 Surrender your desire and ability to get REVENGE (Genesis 50:19-20, 2 Cor 4:17)

#5 Surrender your SELFISHNESS and live in love (Hebrews 12:2, 1 John 4:9-11,16)

There is no other life, like that of love. Nothing brings us so much happiness—as living for others, giving out our lives in sweet helpfulness, whatever the cost may be. The sweetest happiness which we can get in the world, comes from adding a little to the happiness of others. The secret of a beautiful life is living in unbroken fellowship with Christ, under the influence of His presence, and the inspiration of His love and grace.
—J. R. Miller

#6 Surrender your place in this WORLD, when your life has been well spent, expecting a happy life for all eternity. (Genesis 50:24-25, Exodus 13:19, Heb 11:21-22, Rev. 21:4)
