Anticipating the Famine
by Rev. Derek P. Elphick
Type of Event: Worship Service: Sermon only
Date Recorded: 11 Feb, 2024
Location: Bryn Athyn Cathedral
Topics:
Joseph’s interpretation of Pharaoh’s dream, that there would be seven years of plenty followed by seven years of famine, meant that the land of Egypt had time to prepare for this eventual hardship (Genesis 41). If “famine” is a hardship we can expect, what steps might we take to better prepare for it? The happy reunion of Joseph and his brothers wouldn’t have happened without the famine. This story gives us a wonderful glimpse into the workings of the Lord’s providence.
