Genesis 38 is the story of Judah’s family history. A seeming interruption in the story of Joseph. It is the story of how Judah had children and how his generations were preserved. Yet, this is not a pretty, nice family history. This is one of the ugliest and saddest chapters in the Bible.

This story of Judah's descent to rock bottom, however, is one of the greatest stories of God's grace.

We're going to see two parts to this ugly chapter:  

An Ugly Story (Genesis 38) - We’re going to watch Judah’s downward descent. We’re going to see him make a mess and ruin everything in his life. 

A Beautiful Savior - We’re going to see how God redeemed Judah’s sin and failure. We read a chapter like this and wonder “Why is this in the Bible?” To give you the bottom line up front - God lets us see sin and failure like this so that we may see that He is a redeemer. Genesis 38 is not about an ugly sinner, but a beautiful Savior
