What Man Meant for Evil, God Meant for Good - Gen 50:15-21

This week our nation learned about two monumental deaths: the horrific, unprovoked murder of Iryna Zarutska and then just yesterday, the assassination of Christian apologist Charlie Kirk. As the president said, these are dark times. What we do in such times is dependent on *what story we think we are living in.* For instance, if we think we are living in a nihilistic J.G. Ballard story with no good ending, we will become fatalistic, inert and depressed. But the Christian reaches for his Bible. The stories of the Bible are there so we know what story *we* are living in. This week we will consider the story of Joseph, which three times "features" the evil of man. But . . . "what you meant for evil, God meant for good - for the salvation of many."
