Pastor Scott Grorud
Sermon Text: Excerpts from Genesis chapters 45-47
Gospel Text: Matthew 16:21-28
Sermon Title: Happily Ever After?
What does this mean? (Sermon discussion questions.)
1) Why does this part of Joseph’s story seem like “happily ever after”?
2) What clues in the text suggest that all might not be well?
3) How does Peter’s rebuke of Jesus reflect the situation of Jacob’s family at this point?
4) What is the challenge and the solution to both of these texts?
