More than a Technicolor coat

Some people may know him as the guy with the fancy coat but this term, our school-aged groups are finding that there's a bit more to Joseph than his fashion sense.

So far we have discovered that even though he was annoying enough that his brothers chucked him down a hole & then SOLD him, God stayed with him. Then, once he made it to Egypt, God STILL looked after him... Even when he was thrown in gaol for no reason!

So how much do YOU know about Joseph?

Did you know:

  • The name Joseph means 'God will increase'.
  • Joseph was Abraham's great-grandson.
  • Joseph lived in Israel & Egypt 3,800 years ago.
To find out more about this important hero of the Bible & how God stayed with him no matter what, check out the book of Genesis in your Bible.
