Joseph, Part 1

With this sermon Mr. Smith begins a new sermon series on the life of Joseph.  In this first sermon he reviews the dynamics of the family that Joseph grew up in.  We see a family of four brothers from four different mothers and the effects of all of this will be seen in Joseph's life.
