Genesis 42 - The Messy Path to Reconciliation Jonathan's sermon this week centered on Genesis 42, a chapter he identified as a critical turning point in the story of Joseph and his brothers. He emphasized that this passage marks the beginning of a complex journey toward reconciliation, a theme that resonates deeply with anyone navigating family dysfunction or unresolved past hurts. He began by acknowledging the often-messy reality of family relationships, noting that many carry unresolved pain, both from distant and recent events. The sheer volume of Genesis dedicated to Jacob's troubled family, culminating in their eventual restoration, underscores the importance of this theme. Jonathan stressed that God desires unity and healing within families, biological and spiritual alike. Jonathan highlighted that God's work in Genesis 42 is often subtle, unfolding in the background without explicit divine pronouncements. This, he argued, offers hope for those facing seemingly insurmountable challenges. Even when God's presence feels distant, He is actively working to bring about His purposes, using even trauma and trigger points to achieve His will. The catalyst for the brothers' encounter with Joseph was a severe famine. This universal hardship, affecting rich and poor alike, became the instrument through which God orchestrated their journey to Egypt. Jonathan emphasized the improbability of this meeting, highlighting the role of divine providence. It wasn't a mere coincidence but a "God incident," a moment designed by God to fulfill His plan. Joseph's emotional turmoil upon seeing his brothers was a central focus. After years of trauma, including slavery and imprisonment, Joseph had risen to a position of power in Egypt. The sight of his brothers bowing before him triggered a flood of memories, particularly the dreams that had fueled their hatred. Jonathan explored the complex mix of emotions Joseph must have experienced: longing for family, anger at betrayal, and a deep-seated desire for justice. Despite having the power to retaliate, Joseph chose a path of reconciliation, demonstrating his faith in God's larger plan. This choice, Jonathan argued, serves as a powerful example for us all, particularly when faced with the opportunity to seek revenge. The sermon also explored the brothers' perspective, highlighting their growing awareness of guilt and remorse. Their journey to Egypt, the path Joseph was forced to take as a slave, served as a constant reminder of their past actions. The treatment they received from Joseph, whom they didn't recognize, triggered a profound sense of guilt and shame. They began to interpret their circumstances as divine punishment for their sin against Joseph, a recognition that Jonathan suggested was a crucial step toward repentance. Jonathan stressed the importance of acknowledging our own faults and taking responsibility for our actions. He pointed out that the brothers' recognition of their sin, not just against Joseph, but against God, was a turning point. This awareness of transgression against God, the "fear of God," is the beginning of wisdom, leading toward reconciliation. He emphasized that reconciliation is rarely instantaneous. It's a process requiring time, patience, and a willingness to confront painful memories and emotions. Jonathan cautioned against suppressing or ignoring these issues, urging listeners to allow God to work through them, even when difficult. He used the example of a man wronged by his church during the miners' strike, showing pain can last decades if not dealt with. Jonathan concluded by stressing God's unwavering commitment to reconciliation and restoration. He reminded the congregation that God never gives up, even when we give up on ourselves. He urged listeners to respond to God's prompting, confront unresolved issues, and trust in His ability to turn harm into good. God's ultimate desire is to bring healing and wholeness, transforming us from victims or aggressors into vessels of His grace. Bible References: Genesis 42 Genesis 50 Genesis 41:45 Genesis 41 Genesis 42:6 Genesis 42:17 Ezekiel Romans 3:23 Transcript It's been good to already hear God, and I think some of the things I say might tie in with some of the things God has already spoken about. So that's great, isn't it? Rather than me just come up with a few thoughts of my own, perhaps God has already been here before, which is great. The church is working through Genesis at the moment, and today we've come to Genesis 42. Once again, the title we've been given has absolutely no correlation with the message that we have. I don't know who thinks of these titles, but essentially this is a pivotal point in this story. It's the beginning of reconciliation of a family. And it's interesting to me that actually, you know, families, gosh, can't live with them, can't live without them. And I think for so many of us in this room, and I know many of your stories, and some of them I don't know, there are issues in your family, sometimes way back, sometimes even immediate now, ongoing things that have never been resolved that are there. It just struck me, you know, that actually there is chapter after chapter after chapter at the end of Genesis talking about Jacob's family, this dysfunctional, messy family that we've talked about for so long, until it comes to a place of reconciliation and wholeness at the end of chapter 50. And Jacob, sorry, Joseph is able to announce that you might have meant this for harm in my life, but God meant it for good. And the brothers have come before him and actually asked for his forgiveness. There's a real sense of the end of the story is it's a happy ending, but it's a messy, painful, you know, sort of journey, really, until then. Why is there so much given to this story? Well, I think actually there is something that God wants to say to us all at a very, very simple level. God wants us to get on with each other. And we call ourselves the family of God. And we all know that actually to be in God's family where there's unity, there's blessing. Where there is disunity, where there is brokenness, where there is pain, where there is separation, disharmony, then that is actually a dysfunctional church. And, you know, a lot of this story doesn't have, and God said, and then God appeared, and God did this, and God did the other. But there is a real sense of God at work in this mess. And that gives me hope for me and my family, and it should give you hope for you and your family and your situation, that actually the end is not where we see it now. God is still at work, perhaps in the background, perhaps not giving you a prophetic word or this, that, and the other, but this is a story in this chapter, which has trigger points, which has trauma, but is actually, God uses trauma and trigger points to actually bring about his purpose and his will in the lives of this family. I think that's really exciting because when we really have to, you know, things resurface because of circumstances or because of words or because we're facing, again, something that we once tried to avoid or suppress, you know, we maybe moved churches because of it, or we got in touch with our family because of it, or something's happened that we just have left there, we've moved on with our lives, we try to forget what's happened. And God sometimes puts his finger on us and takes us back to a place of pain. It's hard. But what Joseph came to learn and what he told his brothers was, God meant it for good. God's not here to try to harm you or hurt you. He's here to help you and to heal you. But we need to respond to a story of a family in struggle and in pain, a family that actually we had that word about Ezekiel and the dead bones and we sang about it. Family that thought actually, it was completely dead, literally, for whom God's spirit breathed into and brought hope and rescue to. It's a passage where we see God's grace, God's providence, God's hand at work. So in this story, we start with a famine. Famine is always a horrible thing. I've never been through it, but perhaps some of you have lived in countries where there's been famine. It's not something you can escape from. Whether you're rich or poor, you know, if there's no food, there's no food. It's a challenging I guess the only good thing to come out of this famine was it was the means that God used to bring about his purposes of reconciliation in this family situation. We read in the end of chapter 41 that the famine was severe throughout the world. But God uses Joseph, as we heard last week through Chris, to actually bring salvation, not just to his family. There's people coming from all over the known world to Egypt to collect grain. God by his grace uses Joseph to save many, many, many people in this situation, not just in Egypt but in the surrounding nations. That's worthwhile reflecting on and thinking about. But Jacob tells ten of his sons, the older brothers, to go and get out and buy some grain because he says we're going to die otherwise. He's heard that there's grain in Egypt. How did they know they were going to encounter this man that they'd sold for 20 pieces of silver 20 years ago into slavery? Probably 20 years later you wouldn't expect a slave to still be alive at 37. Many of them, that's a long, long edge for a slave. You know, how would you expect this encounter to happen? But Jacob sends out the boys and there is a change that's occurred in Joseph's life. He's now in charge, we read last week in chapter 41 verse 45, of the entire land of Egypt. He's set Pharaoh's deputy. If you're at that higher position, what chance is there that ten nomadic people wandering into your land would meet with you? It's a bit like saying I'm going down to London, hope I bump into Keir Starmer, you know. It's that kind of feel. And this is the providence of God. Not everyone who came to Egypt, because we read that many people came, not everyone that came to Egypt met Joseph. But God had arranged it for these brothers to go there and they encountered Joseph. It wasn't a coincidence, but as Jim Wilkinson from Hollybush, my old pastor used to say, it said, God incidents. It's something that God designed. And what a shock it was for Joseph. He'd gone through the trauma of being a slave, the trauma of being in prison. He'd risen to the top in both those situations within the context of how far he could go. He's now at the top as far as he could go as a free man, rich, powerful, everything going by this world sort of perspective. And there before him are his ten brothers, bowing before him, we read in chapter 42 verse 6, with their faces to the ground. Now we've read that at the end of chapter 41, that Joseph, through everything that God had done in his life, had actually married an Egyptian. He got two kids, the first one. He called Manasseh, which was saying that God has made me forget all my troubles and everyone in my family's house. Well, of course he hadn't really forgotten. I think Chris covered this last week, but it was no longer at the forefront of his mind. It was no longer the big issue in his life. It was behind him. It was his past. It was the old life. Now his new life was he was in charge, powerful, had everything he wanted until now. Suddenly he's face to face with his past and a trigger point in his life. He'd settled into a new role and a new life. But we read that when he saw his brothers bowing before him, he remembered his dreams. The dreams he'd had as a teenager, the dreams which had so antagonized his brothers that stood up their hatred towards him that they wanted to kill him. Sometimes, you know, we are faced with issues, issues that have remained resolved in our lives. We've learned to move on. Life goes on. We move church. We get into another job. We move location. We forget about those things that have happened. They don't dominate our lives in the same way until something triggers them. Something or someone. A chance meeting. Something someone says. Something someone does. And we read that although Joseph recognized his brothers, they didn't recognize him. Well, it's been a long time. Is it 20 years? Slaves don't live long, as I said. This guy's speaking a different language. He's dressed in rich clothes. Why would they even imagine it would be Joseph? They never accepted Joseph's dream in the first place that one day they'd be bowing down before him. They just thought that was the ramblings of an arrogant young man. And here they were. They didn't really get the context. Now, I'm rubbish with names at the best of times, unlike my dear friend Father Jeffrey over here. But I mean, I once went to carcass on holiday with the kids and this family came up to me. And they were all first name terms and chatting about life and what was happening in the church and everything. I still don't know who they were to this day. And if you're watching this video, I'm really sorry if you were that person. I pretended I did. You smiled and everything. But I did that awkward thing where I couldn't really introduce them to Karen or to anyone else there because I couldn't have a clue where they were or where I'd even seen them before. But it gets worse than that with me. I was once back in North Allerton in Tesco and I didn't recognize my own sister coming down there. So I've got a bit of sympathy for them not recognizing what was happening. But they'd never really accepted that this would even be possible. Joseph's response. There's a whole load of stuff comes to the surface here, a whole mix of emotions that are running high. Out of sight might have been out of mind, but now he's face to face with an issue of his past. It was a lecturer who had a Bible college called Bob Gordon, who's not with us anymore, who said that the opposite of love is not hate, it's apathy. Because love and hate are these emotions, these deep emotions of passion that rise in us that say, you know, that tell us that we actually care. We're concerned about an issue. We're involved in this still. It's not a dispassionate thing for us. And here we see this mix of stuff happening in Joseph. There's almost a longing and a yearning that you can read in this narrative that he wants to be back with his family. He certainly wants to see his younger brother Benjamin again. It's absolutely clear from this. There's tears because he understands what the brothers are saying to each other. They don't know that he can understand their language. There's tears when he hears them in turmoil thinking about what's happened and why they've done what they did to Joseph all those years ago. But there's also anger at this injustice that's happened to him. We read time and again that he spoke harshly to them. He threw them in prison for three days. It's the injustice of it all, the anger of this rejection is still really, still a bit there in him. It's not been healed, if you like, by anything. And we see that in his actions. He accuses them of spying. Well, he knows they weren't spies, but he's really challenging their integrity. They said, well, we're honest men. What's honest about never owning up to your dad what happened to your brother, what you did? They've never once come face to face with the fact that they were trying to murder their brother and then sold him into slavery and took the money. We're honest men, they say. He says, no, you're not your spies. You're not who you say you are. He basically has this harshness in his tone. And as we know from chapter 42, verse 17, he throws them into prison, all into prison for three days. But the key thing here is he's got all the power. All the cards are in Joseph's hand. But he doesn't choose a path of retribution. He doesn't choose a path of revenge. He doesn't try to get his own back on these people who had painfully abused him. He basically, ultimately, as we know, releases nine of them, lets them return, puts money in their sacks, and just keeps Simeon back. Simeon, the second oldest. He didn't ask for Reuben, the oldest, because Reuben was the one he'd heard, you know, kind of like almost saying, look, if you listen to me, we wouldn't be in this mess at the moment. We'd have done something different than this. So he took the second oldest, Reuben was let to go back with the other eight. And you see, the thing is, I think despite this emotional roller coaster that we can all go through at times like this in pain, there's a sense where Joseph knew God was also in this. He says to the brothers, I am a God-fearing man. They say that we're honest. He's the one who brings God into it. I'm a God-fearing man, he says. He'd remembered a dream that God had given him that had destiny and purpose. And actually he'd seen that God was now starting to fulfill stuff that had been promised to him or that he'd seen as a teenager. And he chose not to go down the path of revenge or retribution, but actually he chose to set off on a path of reconciliation, understanding God had a bigger picture in mind. Meanwhile, the brothers, they've got no grasp of this bigger picture. As far as they're concerned, Joseph is gone. But I think the circumstances triggered them too. They had a guilty conscience. There's a real sense of remorse and regret that's eventually going to lead to repentance that you can read about in chapter 50. I think just going to Egypt themselves would have reminded them of what had happened to Joseph. You know, they were going on a journey that Joseph had gone as a slave. And once there, the treatment they'd received from Joseph, who they thought was gone, triggered this sense of guilt and shame for their actions that they'd covered up for so many years. And they also see God at work. But not in terms of his purposes or his plan or in terms of reconciliation. They see it in terms of punishment. God is punishing us for what we did to Joseph. Clearly, they say, we are being punished because of what we did to Joseph long ago. We saw his anguish when he pleaded for his life, but we wouldn't listen. We were hard hearted. We were the ones who were harsh there. This ruler might be harsh to us now. And Reuben even says, he calls it a sin that they have to answer for in this passage. He says it's payback time for the sin we have committed. Now sin is an interesting word because sin is not wrongdoing. Sin is to do with God. We don't sin against each other in that sense. We sin against God. Sin is disobedience to God, disobedience to God's law, disobedience to God's way, disobedience to him. All have sinned and fallen short of God's glory, the Bible says. We've all done it. And Reuben is bringing God into this situation. We have sinned. This is not just about Joseph and us. This is about us and God as well as Joseph. And I wonder what happened again. Well, we know what happened because they said, what's God done to us when they discovered that the money has been returned to them. And again, they might be thinking of these 20 pieces of silver that they had taken for the life of their own brother. What has God done to us? They said, trembling with fear. But you see, the Bible says something we don't often talk about in these days because we're too nice, that the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. Then unless we have a clear view of God's holiness and righteousness, you know, perhaps we don't really understand how far short we are of him. And these guys are now wrestling, not just with the shame of what they've done to their brother and the covering up that they've committed, but also with a guilty conscience towards God. They know their lives have been stained by an act of sin. And this fear of God is about to lead them on a journey towards reconciliation too. So they've both got trigger points. Joseph is meeting the brothers. The brothers is the result of what's happened with this guy that they don't know is Joseph. Simeon, as we know, is kept in prison, tied up first, put in prison. And Joseph basically sends them away on the basis that he will stay in prison unless they bring Benjamin back to prove that they are who they say they are, that they're true, genuine, honest people. And until he comes back with Benjamin, then I'm afraid Simeon is going to rot in jail. And they agree. They say we'll do that. Benjamin, the other son from Rachel, Joseph's true brother, not the half brothers, the one who is closest to Jacob. We've got a trigger point in Joseph, bringing back to the throne of what's happened. We've got a trigger point in the brothers where they're now suddenly realizing the consequences of their actions 20 years before. And we've actually got a bit of a trigger point in Jacob. He's still stuck. Stuck in a moment that he can't get out of. Someone tell me which band that is if you want to later. He hasn't moved on. He's still stuck in his grief, in his bereavement. He's still 20 years later mourning Joseph. He's still blaming the other 10 sons. He declares to them, fancy if you're a son and you hear this from your dad, Benjamin is all I have left. That's the father coming from a painful life. And if anything would happen to him, Jacob says, you would send this grieving white haired man to his grave. He sounds like he's very self-absorbed in his own grief. He's a sad man. And relatively he shows little outward concern, although he acknowledges that Simeon's in prison, shows little outward concern for his son that's locked up in a foreign jail rather than actually Benjamin going to rescue him. You know, he says, well, Benjamin can't go. I don't trust you with Benjamin's life. It reminds me of what happened to Joseph. I trusted you with Joseph and look what happened with him. He was killed you say by wild animals. And rather than helping the family, rather than restoring relationships of this dysfunctional family between these 10 sons and a father who was deliberately showing love and affection to his favorite wife's kids, rather than Leah's kids who he was conned into marrying. It's all going back, isn't it? Into all mess that's happened years and years before. It hasn't resolved anything. There's still that sense of favoritism. There's still that sense of Benjamin matters more than you do. It's hard for these guys to hear Pat and Reuben pleads on the life of his own kids, try to get Simeon back. And as I say, in the midst of all this drama, family drama, is God. God is at work. He's at work in all the emotions. He's at work in all those feelings of shame and anguish and remorse. He's at work in all those sense of anger and pain and tears and longing and yearning. He's at work even in the sadness and the bereavement of Joseph. He is at work and his plan is for reconciliation, for restoration and ultimate rescue of this family. But he works it out in the midst of trauma and painful reminders. We heard today, didn't we, about Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane and the pain that he suffered and went through. God works at times in pain to bring us to a place of restoration and healing. So I come to a close. It's a bit of a long close, but we need to apply this, don't we? What do we learn about reconciliation from this passage? I think you need to want it. And I think ultimately Joseph did rather than retribution. However painful it was for him, he did not go for revenge. He had a dream that God had given him which was yet unfulfilled because he saw all his family, including his mum and dad, bowing before him. And that hadn't happened at this point. And he knew that if God had been in the first bit with his brothers, he was going to be in the second bit too. So he was still hanging on for something bigger than was happening already. But also I think there needs to be a recognition of any pain we've caused. You need to own your fault. And the brothers are beginning to do that. They're beginning to understand their part in this and what they've done. And I'd like to say also about reconciliation. It's rarely instant because you're working through all those emotions. You're working through all that pain. You're working through all those memories and all that history. It's a process. It's a journey. But God wants to set you on it. The answer is not just to suppress it and hide it if God brings it to the surface. And I think for some of us today, whether you've been wrong badly by family or friends or even a church. I heard, yes, on Friday night about a man who basically during the miners strike, he was a member of a church and during the miners strike, he had passed the picket line. I'm not trying to make a political point here either side. People in the church were putting dog poo through his letterbox and writing him nasty letters. As a result, he's never been to church again. Now, I'm not saying his attitudes right either, but it just shows you pain. Because 30 years ago, I think now All Grief, they're basically bringing it back on the television now. I was with a guy the other day who was at that Battle of All Grief and saw the police doing their bit and the miners doing their bit. And you know, forget which side of the divide you're on. There's still a lot of pain going on. There's still a lot of pain going on. So whether you've been wrong badly or whether because of jealousy or anger or hatred, you've said or done something to someone that you wished you hadn't. It could be recently. It could be a long time ago. God may be triggering something in you today, bringing you up to a place where you're face to face with a situation that you have never resolved. Because he wants to ultimately bring reconciliation and restoration to you. Ultimately, his plan is to do something good in the midst of harm that has happened to you or because of you. Out of what was broken, out of what was dead, as we read in Ezekiel, the dead bones, or seems lost. God brings salvation and healing. And I'm not suggesting this morning that that will be it. It might be for somebody. But acknowledging that we're on a process, that we will take time to run through some of this stuff that's churning inside us, that actually is a mixture of longing and yearning and loving to be restored. But also there's pain and there's anger and there's tears and there's shame and there's guilt and there's all this mess going on. But God never gave up on this family. And he doesn't give up on you. He doesn't give up on anyone. We've heard that also today. But we've got to own our part in this story. God is at work. He's the ever-present one. He's in and through all the circumstances at work in you. What might have been meant for harm and did harm you? He wants by his grace to turn into something good because he has something bigger and better for you than to always be a victim or to always be known as the aggressor or the perpetrator of something. So if God's speaking to you today, please don't ignore his voice because God has stirred you because he wants to do something good for you. Amen. God bless you.

We return to our regularly scheduled EJB Talks this week with Bob Gordon, a Senior Policy Fellow who joined the Bloustein School earlier this year. Dean Stuart Shapiro asks Bob, a former New Jersey legislator and BPU Commissioner, about his path to public service. Bob talks about his early days as a policy analyst and how he discovered he wanted to be less behind the scenes and move into the policymaking side. He discusses the successes, missteps, and side steps that eventually led to his 14-year legislative term and eventual BPU role, as well as some key legislation he helped pass to improve accountability and transparency in government. He explained how some of his greatest pleasures and satisfaction came from working with everyday constituents to help them solve their problems. Stuart and Bob wrap up by discussing how students interested in politics and public service should be aware of the negative aspects of public life and always have a backup plan for their future but also be willing to focus on the good they will accomplish if they pursue a career serving the common good.
The kickoff of a new season has arrived. The Kares open their 2024 campaign with the visiting Francis Parker Lancers from San Diego this Saturday night. It has been a summer full of anticipation and the wait is finally over. Joining us today is long time football official Bob Gordon, who will discuss some points of emphasis this year in regard to the rules. I had the privilege to work many games with Bob in the past and this will be his 50th season on the gridiron. Another guest we have is RHP alum Evan Foor, who led Rio to its first ever Baseball Championship in his Senior year of 2019. Evan is currently an All Conference Pitcher at Oklahoma Wesleyan University and shares fond memories of his experience as a Quarterback at Rio Hondo Prep from just a few short years ago. Happy New Year!

Summary of Karen's Sermon: Making Mistakes Introduction Karen starts the sermon by acknowledging the audience and explaining her method for preparing the sermon. She then introduces the passage she will be focusing on: Genesis 16, which tells the story of Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar. Bible References: Genesis 15:6, Genesis 16 The Story of Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar Karen outlines the story in Genesis 16: Abraham is promised by God that he will have descendants as numerous as the stars (Genesis 15:6). Ten years later, Sarah has not conceived a child. Sarah proposes that Abraham have a child with Hagar, her maidservant. Hagar becomes pregnant with Abraham's child, Ishmael. There is conflict between Sarah and Hagar. Hagar flees into the desert. An angel of the Lord finds Hagar and tells her to return to Sarah. The angel promises Hagar that Ishmael will have many descendants. Hagar acknowledges God as "the God who sees me." Key Points Karen highlights that women are not portrayed positively throughout Genesis, but her perspective on this passage has changed. Everyone makes mistakes, and the characters in this story are all facing difficult situations. Even though Abraham and Sarah made mistakes, God did not abandon them. God sees us in our circumstances and offers us grace. Challenges and Choices Karen talks about a personal situation where she feels stuck and is praying for guidance. She emphasizes the importance of seeking God's will when faced with challenging circumstances. We should pray about what our role is in difficult situations – is it to pray, or is it to take action? Conclusion Karen encourages listeners to reflect on the passage and ask God what He wants them to learn from it. She reminds everyone that God sees us and will help us through our struggles. Additional Notes Karen mentions struggling with the concept of rescuing others and emphasizes that God is the rescuer. She acknowledges that waiting for God's timing can be difficult. Transcription Um, we're going to have a little bit of audience participation as well. High, lovely people. Is that okay? You're not allowed to say no, by the way. I don't know. Um, and a rider is, you are not the people that you will be in today's story. Is that okay? So I went to see Graham, and I went morning Graham, and he went, it's going to be trouble, isn't it? And all I wanted was some verses up there, that's all. So, um, we're doing Genesis 16 today. If you like Genesis 15, 16 and 17 are all part of the same soap opera, because it all goes together. But before we start on it, I'm going to give you a little bit of my background because it is relevant. So, as Nick said, I've been married to Johnson for nearly 40 years, as I've known him for 43 years. Um, we started going out on February the 1st, 1981. And we met at Bible College. Or, as was commonly known at the time, London Bridal College. Plus, there were lots of women there, and not that many men. Um, and Jonathan was doing a diploma in theology, and I was doing a degree in theology. And because I was doing a degree, that then meant that I could do a pastoral diploma alongside my degree. Which meant that you did extra lectures, but you also had to do various other things. I had to do two summer schools. I did one with Bob Gordon and Colin Erkart many years ago. Um, and it also meant that you had to do so many preachers at churches over the two years. Okay? So, you'd get a list, and you'd phone that church up, and you'd say, hi, I'm your, hi, I'm your preacher for such and such a date. And I would do this, and on a regular basis, as soon as whoever picked the phone were up, and they heard a woman's voice, they would say, no, you're not. Okay? I'm talking 40 years ago. The method is actually, we're very good. They always let me go. Um, and that sort of embedded in me something that started when I was about 12. So, I remember one day at home, my dad was painting, he was decorating. And I went up to him, and I said, can I have a go, Dad? Oh, no. It's not for women, this is a man's job. Now, I don't know whether this is something that God's placed in me, or just whether it's a character flaw. If somebody tells me I can't do something, I'm blooming well going to do it. So, when I went to Bible college and lots of men, sorry men, were telling me I couldn't preach in a church. I was good enough to, I could do the children's talk. I was good enough for the children, but I wasn't good enough for the congregation because I was a woman. So, that kind of set me on a journey. And there was a lovely lecturer at Bible college called Mary Evans, and she wrote a book called Women in the Bible, which I very much appreciated. Because if you think about it, the Bible was written by who? Men or women? Men. Who is it mainly about? Men or women? And then I started, as we've been going through Genesis, my premise before I started living this chapter over the week was women don't really come out in a good light in Genesis. And I have to say, my viewpoint has changed because of living this chapter this week. So, for those of you that have done the speaking course that has run a couple of times, you'll know that how I get my talk ready is I'll read it, and then I start living it, I read all about it, I read all the commentaries, I have to go to speak to me, and that has been very challenging this week in ways that I'm not going to go into before I'm ready to stand up and talk. Now, when we start going through this, there are three characters. There is Abraham, not Abraham at this point, there is Abraham. There is Serai, not Sera, Serai, and there is Hagar. Okay? These are our three characters, all right? Now, what Erika talked about last week was the promise that was first given to Abraham. And that promise was that he would have a child, and the descendants of that child would be as many as the stars. Okay? And he believed that promise. It says in 15, verse 6, that Abraham believed the Lord. Okay? So, chapter 16, we've skipped ten years, we're ten years later. If I could have verse two, grey, and whenever you're ready, that would be marvellous, thank you. Now, I'm not sure if when Abraham told Serai what he said, what he said, hello wife, God told me you're going to have a baby, and your baby is going to have lots of babies and so on. So, was the promise first given to Abraham, or was it first given to Serai? Abraham. So, Sera is getting it second hand. It's the promise that's given to Abraham, but actually it's her that's going to fulfill that promise. Ten years down the line, she's thinking nothing's happened here. Is this my fault? Is there something wrong with me? Am I not good enough? I don't know what she was thinking, but the bottom line was she was thinking nothing's happening here. And yet, this is the promise that Abraham has said, God has given him. So, I'm going to need to help out here. The Lord has kept me from having children. Go sleep with my slave. Perhaps, I can build a family through her. The very important word there, perhaps. She wasn't absolutely certain, but perhaps we can do it this way. Next first, please. So, Abraham has been given a promise that his descendants will come through Serai. Did Abraham say that to Serai? Not really. I don't know what he said, but he went ahead and did what she told him to, or suggested. And he lay with Hagar. Now, poor Hagar, servant slave, could she have any say in it? No. Was it something she wanted? We don't know. Did Serai think about the consequences of what she was asking of both Abraham and Hagar? Often, we don't see the big picture, do we? We just see that little bit. What was Abraham thinking? Was he thinking, well, she might be right. Nothing's happened yet. This will, God promised me, I believed it. We'll give it a go. I don't know. Anyway, it happened. Then, Hagar, who's been this servant to Sera, well, from being this subservient servant, she's now got something that Serai hasn't got. Abraham's child. That puts her in a position of power. I don't think Sera quite thought that through, did she? So then, Serai, oh, my word, my slave is standing there all haughty, talkty. I'm carrying Abraham's child, something you haven't been able to do. She got coke well with that, surprisingly. It gets a bit jealous. I love this bit. Then, can you carry on, Graham? I'll tell you when to stop. This is it, I love this bit. She says to Abraham, you're responsible for this. This is your fault. This is what I mean about Genesis, we mean it a bad light anyway. But actually, she's not wrong, is she? Is she? Because Abraham could have said... No! And he didn't. And the promise wasn't given to her, it was given to Abraham. She was trying to help out by saying, well, nothing's happening with me, let's try this another way, and he agreed. The innocent victim, if you like it all of this, wasn't Abraham, wasn't Serai, it was? Now, I've thought long and hard about this, and I'm going to be there, I'm even going to read the wording because... There is something about our circumstances. And I've thought very carefully and pray very hard about which circumstances I highlight, because we are all, if you like, victims of circumstances, at some point in our lives, to a greater or lesser degree, would you agree? Sometimes, illness, whether that is a physical or a mental illness, we're not in control of that, we haven't asked for it, we don't want it, it becomes part of who we are, because it's a circumstance we live with. Sometimes, loss, loss of a child, loss of a spouse, loss of a job can impact, and it isn't something we are in control of. Sometimes, the inability to have a child, we're not in control of that. Sometimes, to have a child with a difficulty or disability that impacts on our lives and who we are, again, we're not in control of that. Sometimes, loss of reputation that we are not in control of, I was thinking about the post office scandal. One of those poor women had to have, I was listening to her on the radio, and she begged not to have the baby in prison and actually had the baby in an ambulance on a roundabout, so that that baby was not born in prison. Circumstances that we are not in control of can and are very impactful on our lives. Greed? So, there's Hagar. Okay? So, she's had enough. Sarah is being absolutely horrible to her. Abraham's walked away and said, not that far. Do what you want. Hagar's had enough, so she thinks I'll take a walk. Can't do this. Now, she's not supposed to because she's the possession, if you like, of Sarah. And the thing is, when this baby comes, it won't be long to her, it will be long to her mistress. Absolutely, these circumstances are outside of her control, so she takes a walk into a desert. And keep going, Graham, and I'll tell you when to stop. Stop there, please. So, she's had a spring in the desert, fairly desperate. And in verse 7, it says, the angel of the Lord found Hagar near a spring in the desert. Okay, next verse, please, Graham. And he said, Hagar, slave of Sarah, where have you come from or where are you going? He knew all of that. Yep. And she gives the bare minimum, I am running away from my mistress, Sarah. I carry on, Graham. Then the angel of the Lord told her, go back to your mistress and submit to me to her. What would you have said? I don't think so. I'm not going to do that. Thank you very much. It's not nice. I'm not having a nice time. Next one, Graham. Then, I will increase your descendants so much that they will become too numerous to count. Where have we heard that before? Oh, the previous chapter. The promise that was given to Abraham about Sarah, and yet here it is again. Okay. And he's promised it to this slave, Hagar. Because she is bearing Abraham's son. Next verse, please, Graham. You are now pregnant and you will give birth to a son and you will name him Ishmael, for the Lord has heard of your misery. Ishmael means God hears. God hears. The Lord has heard of your misery. Next verse, please, Graham. I love this description because, you know, you could have a baby. It's going to have loads of descendants and it's going to be a wild donkey. Whoopee. Yeah. He'll be against everyone and everyone's hand will be against him and he will live in hostility towards all his brothers. There's something about this particular verse because we are living as part of that now. Okay. Next verse, please, Graham. Right. She gave this name to the Lord who spoke to her. Now, two verses earlier, it's been an angel of the Lord. This is really, really important. Two verses earlier, it was the angel of the Lord who came. Okay. Now, she gave this name to the Lord who spoke to her. You are the God who sees me. I have now seen the one who sees me. This is really important. Tell me another woman in the Old Testament who has seen God. Now, Johnson and I would did this for quite a while. Please feel free to come and let me know afterwards. We could find loads of women that had actually prophetesses that had heard from God. But this says, you are the God who sees me. I have now seen the one who sees me. This woman was a slave and circumstances had put her in this position of misery. And God, God came to her and said, I see your misery. This is the promise that I will give you because you haven't done anything. You are a victim of your circumstance. Wow. And the more I thought about this, you see, then we get, who were the first to the tomb? It was the women that went and said, he's not here. He's gone. He's risen. So I get to the point of actually the Bible might have been written by men, about men a lot of the time. But there is a equality in that I personally do not see that God prefers men. That God prefers women. He prefers people who have a heart for him. And for me, this woman was changed because she could say, I have been seen by God and I have seen God. And she went back. And when Ishmael was born, Abraham, if you like, honored the fact that Ishmael was his child. So, I think it's entirely up to you what you take away from this passage. I'm still working things through a lot in my head and my heart. But for me, the biggest thing was we will all find ourselves in circumstances that are out of our control. And we all have decisions to make about our approach then to those circumstances. Now, when you read to the next chapter, does God abandon Abraham because actually he blew it a bit? And actually, to be fair, he blew it a lot. If you look at what happens later in terms of the sons of Ishmael and the adversity between the two half brothers, if you like, does God then abandon Abraham? No, in the very next chapter, changes his name. And Sir I changes his name, her name. So, from being the exalted father, which is what Abraham means, to the father of many, which is what Abraham means. And Sir I, it's just like a little change. It still means princess, but I think it's almost a reconformation that you are a princess and you have born a son. So, God doesn't actually hold this whole mistake against these two. He still does what he planned to do. So, that tells me it's not a brilliant idea to make a mistake, but also is that going to ever stop God working in your life and doing what he needs to do? So, therefore, for me, is this about our response? Now, I don't say this lightly, and I don't say this as this is what we should all do, because we are responsible for our own salvation. The New Testament says you work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. But my challenge to each and every one of us is when circumstances come along that we are not in control of. And there's a particular situation at the moment for me, and I've been praying about it, and all I can see is a big, big block of concrete. And I can't get over it. Can't get under it. It's a bit like the bear hunt. Can't get over it. Can't get under it. Can't get around it. And all I'm asking God to do is show me the way through it, because at this point we have choices to make. We try to do God's work for us, and even if we do, he's not going to stop loving us. His grace is sufficient. But if you think about it and pray about it and say, OK, God, this is what I do, but do I do that? Do I not do that? Now, can I make a distinction here? This is very different to you making plans for yourself, where you might say, right, Lord, I'm going to open this door, I'm going to open that door, and you close the one that isn't right. That's very different to being in circumstances that you are not in control of. Does that? Yeah? So all I would like us to do is ask God to speak to you about which part of this has been relevant for you and what God wants to say to you. Just because I've been going through all of this all weeks, I'm putting on you now, basically. The other thing is, the very last thing is, it's almost like sometimes we feel the need, we can see people in these situations, can't we? We can see people in circumstances that are hard for them, and it can be very easy for us to want to rescue them. And that's the situation that I found myself in this week, in a situation that involves other people, and I just want to go and rescue. And this has absolutely stopped me in my tracks, because now I've had to say, actually, it's not my job. And that is really hard sometimes. You know, you love people, or you know people really well, and you know how hard it is for them, and there is a desire within us to rescue people. And the thing that we then have to say to ourselves is, what is my role? Jesus, and God our loving Heavenly Father, or the motherhead who loves to gather her chicks to herself, is the rescuer. And therefore what we need to be praying is, what is my role? Is my role just to be praying, or is my role to do something? Does that make sense as well? So, I'm sorry, it's been very different to yours last week, Erica. But this is honestly, I've battled so much with this in terms of what has been the right thing to do and to say. But all I would say to you is, God is the God who sees you, and sees you wherever you are, whatever situation you're in. And he is the one that will make a difference. Now, I'm sorry I'm going to go into the next chapter. Abraham and Sarah didn't have a baby that next year. I think it's something like another 17 years past. So, it's a waiting game. And as Christians, we're impatient, and we want stuff, and we want it now, and we want differences in situations now. And that's when we start to rescue, and that's when we start to engineer things to happen. So, sometimes we need to hold back, and we need to ask God for patience. And I don't know whether that's what God means with this block. He's saying, you need to stop, and put in a block in your way so you can't. And then I'm working that through. So, what I want us to do is simply, I'm not asking anybody to do anything other than perhaps go home, read that particular chapter again, and ask God are you saying anything to me, and what do you want me to do? And I'm done. Thank you.

Daytime TV – it's a subject we've broached a couple times on AHC Podcast, but this episode is about one of the heavy hitters of the afternoon antics. Dr. Phil has been on our TV's for over 20 years and has made a name for himself for a number of reasons. In the beginning, it seemed he was all for helping couples in need, a troubled teen, or a drug addict looking for help. As time wore on, the show topics got wilder and tales of potential exploitation have clouded the once clear image. But is Dr. Phil really out to expose people in their darkest hour, or is he really looking to offer a helping hand to those that could use it? We'll dive into this and much, much more on this episode of AHC Podcast. Citations: Batheja, A. (2018, January 10). The time Oprah Winfrey beefed with the Texas Cattle Industry. The Texas Tribune.

In 1918, German flying ace Manfred von Richthofen chased an inexperienced Canadian pilot out of a dogfight and up the Somme valley. It would be the last chase of his life.

We'll also consider some unwanted name changes and puzzle over an embarrassing Oscar speech. Intro: In the early 1970s, AI researcher James Meehan tried to teach a computer to retell Aesop's fables.

Baritone saxophone master Leo Parker has been unfairly treated in the history books and left out as one of the pioneers of Modern Jazz and the first major baritone saxophonist of the modern era. Parker's life, like many musicians of his era was short and blighted by drug use and he experienced long periods of incarceration because of that. Tonight's Feature was to be his second album marking a "comeback" in 1961. The first was issued on Blue Note and was musically fine and a positive step in bringing Parker's name back to the forefront of Jazz. Parker, who was no relation to Charlie Parker was born in Washington D.C. on April 18, 1925 and died at age 36 in New York on February 11, 1962, dead of a heart attack brought on by a drug overdose. This fine album was never issued until the Blue Note vaults were opened in the 80's. It's a good example of accessible and swinging Jazz with Leo's well organized band of lesser known but excellent players. Lots of blues and jump tunes and Leo's huge toned and distinctive baritone saxophone make "Rollin' With Leo" an enjoyable musical trip. Leo Parker deserves a much more prominent place in the pantheon of baritone saxophonists. The greats as we know are Harry Carney then the modern players like Gerry Mulligan, Serge Chaloff, Cecil Payne, Pepper Adams, Bob Gordon and LEO PARKER!
