What happens when doing the right thing only seems to make life worse? In Genesis 39, Joseph goes from being a slave in Potiphar’s household to a position of trust and responsibility, only to be falsely accused and thrown into prison after refusing to compromise his integrity. His story challenges our assumptions about what it means to be blessed by God. Faithfulness doesn’t always lead to comfort, success, or an easier life. Sometimes, it means enduring hardship while continuing to do what is right. Yet through every twist and turn in Joseph’s story, one truth remains: the Lord was with him. Join us as we explore how God uses trials to shape our character, why integrity matters even when it comes at a cost, and how we can learn to trust in God’s faithful presence even when life seems to be going from bad to worse.

Dave Berdan shares the heart behind his ministry, 37 Frank, a Youth for Christ centre in Strathroy, Ontario. He defines the centre as a "third space" for youth aged 13-21—a safe, non-judgmental environment where they can belong, be themselves, and discover God's love without a forced agenda. Grounded in Romans 15:13 and 1 John 4, Dave emphasizes that while he and his team cannot solve every problem, they prioritize walking through the "mud" of life alongside these young people, showing them tangible love and offering hope where it often feels scarce.
