  • Joseph: Authentic Leadership Forged in the Crucible
    JOSEPH: AUTHENTIC LEADERSHIP FORGED IN THE CRUCIBLE Melody Smith Authentic leadership, a relatively new leadership theory, helps fill the need for principled and trustworthy leaders. Issues of integrity, values, and care for others are emphasized, aligning well with biblical foundations for Christian leaders. Of special note is the role of major life events or crucibles, referring to some transformative experience or hardship which tests a person’s limits, but also provides the means of personal growth, empathy, self-knowledge, and deeper reliance upon God. Joseph exemplified authentic leadership in practice and through years of life-changing hardship. Through his own values, self-control, compassion, and sense of purpose, he earned the trust of high officials, and even more importantly, he was found trustworthy by God, who was consistently blessed his leadership. I. INTRODUCTION On December 5, 2018, Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer of George H. W. Bush, provided a eulogy at President G. H. W. Bush’s funeral (Foussianes, 2018, para. 1). He eloquently spoke of President Bush’s character: “His life code, as he said, was: ‘Tell the truth. Don’t blame people. Be strong. Do your best. Try hard. Forgive. Stay the course.’ And that was, and is, the most American of creeds” (Foussianes, 2018, para. 12). Such life codes speak of integrity. They speak of those vital internal character qualities of trustworthy leaders. According to Meacham (2015), President Bush might justify political compromise during campaigns, but always aimed to be “principled and selfless once in command” (Meacham, 2015, p. xxv). Meacham continued, “And as Journal of Biblical Perspectives in Leadership 9, no.

To me, the most amazing thing about this story is that it's about human beings — like all of us — who mess up but aren't left alone. As we see forgiveness and redemption unfold for a fractured family, we can celebrate grace. As Andy Stanley wrote, "Grace is not reserved for good people, grace reveals the goodness of God" (The Grace of God). The fresh musical score, which blends styles such as country western, disco, French ballad, and rock and roll, offers a perspective that the story of Joseph is as timeless and real for us now as it has been since it first appeared in Genesis. Enjoy the show, and most of all, celebrate with us the "story of a boy whose dreams came true!" — Rebecca Baker Please silence all electronic devices.

  • Joseph Programme.Pdf
    SYNOPSIS Our story starts about three thousand years ago in Canaan in the household of Jacob and his twelve sons. Joseph is Jacob's favourite son, and to show his love for Joseph, Jacob presents him with a fabulous multicoloured coat which is the envy of all his brothers. Joseph tells his brothers about the strange dreams he has been having, which he interprets to mean that he will become much more important than all the rest of his family. Understandably, his eleven brothers are angry and jealous and they plot to get rid of their brother. One day in the desert they seize him and sell him to some passing Ishmaelite slave traders, taking his torn coat to Jacob to persuade him that his favourite son has been killed. Joseph, meanwhile, is sold to a rich Egyptian called Potiphar. He works hard and is quickly promoted, but is seduced by Mrs Potiphar and consequently thrown into jail by his master. There Joseph meets two other prisoners, a royal baker and butler. He successfully interprets their dreams, and word of his unusual gift reaches the ears of Pharaoh, who has himself been plagued by nightmares. Joseph is summoned to a royal audience and tells Pharaoh that his dreams foretell a great famine. He advises Pharaoh how to avert this crisis and in return Pharaoh makes Joseph his royal adviser, second only to the king. Meanwhile, in Canaan, Jacob's family are hit hard by the famine and Jacob sends his remaining sons to Egypt to beg for food from Pharaoh's mysterious new adviser.
