Genesis 42-43: Starving for Reconciliation
from Saints Peter and Paul Sermons · host Pastor Aaron Gehrke
In the midst of a hope famine, we have the bread of life, Jesus Christ. But we can't go from being starving for Jesus to being gluttonous for Jesus. We need to spread the bread. And we do that by acting like Joseph. Instead of seeking retribution against his brothers in Genesis 42-43, he sought reconciliation. Instead of dividing the relationship, he was moved by compassion and worked to bring it back together. We're starving. But, we're not starving for Jesus. We're starving for reconciliation.
