Joseph Bible Study: Cultivating Dependence on God | By Bill Crowder

This Joseph Bible study explores how God uses broken relationships, setbacks, and hardship to form resilient faith. In Joseph: Cultivating a Life of Dependence on God, Bill Crowder brings Joseph’s story to life—showing how God remained present in every betrayal and disappointment. As you follow Joseph from the pit to the palace, you’ll discover how God shapes your own faith through trials and teaches you to trust Him more deeply.

Joseph’s experiences—enslaved, lied about, imprisoned, forgotten—mirror the struggles many of us face today. His honesty, suffering, and perseverance make him one of Scripture’s most relatable figures. Through his story, you’ll see how God uses even harsh and unexpected setbacks to strengthen your faith and draw you closer to Himself.

This Bible study will help you:

• Recognize God’s presence and purpose in moments of loss and betrayal
• Respond to disappointment with faithfulness and trust
• Develop a deeper dependence on God through difficult seasons
• Understand how God shapes character and resilience through trials
• Reflect on your own relationships and seek healing where needed

Questions at the end of each chapter make this study ideal for personal reflection or group discussion, helping you apply biblical principles to your own story and encouraging conversations that lead to lasting change and restored relationships.

Bill's study of the life of Joseph has also led to a Discovery Series booklet.
