Jesus is the True and Better Joseph Jesus is the True and Better Joseph

What do you do when you follow God faithfully—and life gets harder instead of easier?

In this message, Jesus the True and Better Joseph, we walk through the story of Joseph and confront a hard but honest reality: God does not always explain why or when—but He never withholds Himself. Joseph remained faithful through betrayal, injustice, silence, and waiting, and Scripture reminds us again and again that the Lord was with him.

Ultimately, Joseph’s story points us to Jesus. Jesus endured the cross not because suffering made sense, but because He trusted the Father completely. For the joy set before Him, He endured—and through His victory, suffering no longer has the final word.

If you are walking through a season that doesn’t make sense, this message reminds us of the gospel hope we cling to: Christ is enough. Our joy, peace, and hope are not found in changed circumstances, but in union with Christ—who is with us even when answers are not.
