This Sunday, God's word takes us back into the story of Joseph. We'll consider the secret of success for the one following the Lord. What causes us to succeed? And what does success look like in our lives as we walk with the Lord?

Who is responsible for our success? How does our work relate with God's work? This Sunday's sermon text might seem foreign to us. It's an ancient business deal involving herds, breeding, and a little superstition, too. And yet at the foundation we'll see two men not unlike us today who are striving for material success no matter the cost.
In a season when many resolve and desire for more, God's word for us this week is to consider the danger of coveting and the freedom of contentment. This Sunday we'll conclude our sermon series in the 10 Commandments from this past fall with the final word: You shall not covet.
