How Difficult Times Can Be a Blessing

Today on Bold Steps Minute, Pastor Mark talks about how the story of Joseph in Genesis chapters 37 to 50, shows you how difficult times can be a blessing. During the time that Joseph was enslaved and in prison, Mark reminds you how Joseph never took on a victim mentality and how God was molding Joseph into the man he was to become. This story is great encouragement to trust and keep your faith in God through difficult times.
