Summary

Elder Holland once taught, "Every one of us has times when we need to know things will get better… For emotional health and spiritual stamina, everyone needs to be able to look forward to some respite, to something pleasant and renewing and hopeful, whether that blessing be near at hand or still some distance ahead… My declaration is that this is precisely what the gospel of Jesus Christ offers us." The story of Joseph of Egypt is exactly this: a story of good things to come despite difficult things we see. In fact, as we study this week we want to build on our study last week and learn how to not only let the Lord prevail, but let Him prosper us, our families, and those we love and serve.

1:15.6	Hello friends, welcome to this week's episode of the Scripture Study Project. We are studying this week in Genesis 37 through 42, and you may notice that we skip a few chapters from last week's

2:03.2	Drink Coat Broadway. But actually, it's just all that. That's just the only reason.
2:10.0	Well, I have had all of those songs stuck in my head this week nonstop. They are very educational.
2:15.3	And they're pretty spot on. Like it's one of those stories that you're singing the words to it as you are reading and you think,
