Curb appeal sells, so they say. A freshly-mown lawn, lanterns beside the door, a lamp post in the freshly-mown lawn, help to make the house look more appealing. That works in real estate but not in Exodus. Enjoy this week's episode to hear the story.

One morning, a friend's mom poured me a bowl of all Lukcy Charms marshmallows without the oats. Heaven had kissed earth. But after a few bites, I learned that more in life is both/and, not either/or. Faith works a lot like that. Enjoy this week's episode to hear the story.

Exodus 4 is one of those scary neighborhoods where you roll up the windows, lock the doors, and speed through it to keep from getting hurt.

I wonder how long Potiphar's wife waited and worried that one day Joseph would execute a raid on their home and execute her for falsely accusing him. As best as we know, that knock never came.

Joseph should have been afraid of dreams. His dreams helped land him in a dry pit to die, in a slave auction, as a servant in Potiphar's house, falsely accused, and in prison. But when a couple of his cellmates had two troubling dreams, he smiled, knowing God was going to make their dreams come to pass: and his as well. Enjoy this week's episode to hear the story.
