In this 9-part series, Joseph: Portrait of a Winner, Michael Youssef shows you how God defines a winner through the turbulent life of Joseph. Using eight character qualities, Dr. Youssef leads you to the truth that will help you live a life of a true winner — God’s type of winner!

In Winners Are Courageously Patient, Dr. Michael Youssef calls believers to reject a feelings-driven faith and stand firm on the unchanging Word of God. From Genesis 40, Joseph’s long years in an unjust prison reveal that God’s delays are not His denials. Though forgotten by men, Joseph trusted the Lord’s perfect timing, refusing bitterness, self-pity, or blame. Dr. Youssef warns that living by emotion leads to spiritual defeat, while living by faith produces endurance, compassion, and readiness for God’s calling. In a culture that demands instant results, God’s winners must wait courageously, interceding for others, clinging to His promises, and refusing to abandon the dreams He has authored.
