First Cary UMC's First on Chatham Sermon –  Rev. Kollin Absher-Baer  – July 20, 2025

Scripture: Genesis 41:14-41

Joseph’s rise from prison to power isn’t a triumph—it’s a testimony. His past isn’t erased; it's carried into his leadership, where forgiveness becomes an act of quiet courage. Justice never came, but Joseph chooses healing over bitterness, offering wisdom where he could have sought revenge. His story challenges us to consider what it means to forgive when the wound still aches and resolution never arrives. As we continue to lean into the journey of Joseph, may we explore how God can transform pain into purpose - even when healing feels unfinished.
