Summary: Faced with the chance for revenge, Joseph chose to forgive his brothers.One of the choices that most shapes our character is the choice to choose forgiveness when we have been hurt.We are both victims and perpetrators of sin: we are hurt, and we hurt others. But with forgiveness comes freedom from the guilt and fear of wrongs we have committed, and freedom from the pain and bitterness of wrongs committed against us.This sermon explores forgiveness through the story of Joseph and his brothers found in Genesis 45-50.It can be used in conjunction with the Prezi zooming visuals found at this link.It was preached at Sunday Night at St John's, Southgate, Melbourne on August 17th, 2014.
