Sinopse

The main focus of Sunday's passage is Jacob's journey to Egypt and how his family navigates living in a foreign land. Matt parallels between Joseph's family navigating Egypt and how Christians navigate a world that may be hostile to their beliefs. When Pharaoh asks Jacob how old he is, Jacob responds with a negative view of his life. Matt highlights the significance of Jacob blessing Pharaoh, indicating that Jacob understands his purpose as a carrier of God's blessing. He encourages Christians to recognise their role in carrying God's blessing to the world, even in foreign and hostile environments.
