Product Description
In Great Lives: Joseph, Charles Swindoll reveals to us a man buffeted with the same kinds of problems we face today, whose tenacious faith in God ultimately won him great honor and achievement. No family today is more dysfunctional than Joseph's was. No one faces greater temptation than that which Potiphar's wife offered Joseph. No faith is challenged more severely than was Joseph's on death row. Yet Joseph stood firm, exemplifying what is possible when ordinary people maintain their connections with God. Like an epic novel filled with intrigue, tension, and torrential emotions, Joseph's triumphiant story touches us all. Great Lives: Joseph presents a fresh look at one of the most intriguing characters in the Old Testament and focuses on the virtue of forgiveness in the face of deceit and betrayal.

 | Get it, read it, give it to a friend. Apr 29, 2010 |
| Seriously, what can you say about this book - the story of Joseph is one of the great stories not only of the Bible, but really of all time; and Swindoll is a great author and communicator - put them together and you have one very good read! I stopped short of 5 stars in my recommendation only because I thought Swindoll was a little wordy and stretched the book out too much. But the material covered, the insight given, and the applications to life today are worth the price of the book and then some. Great book to read and great book to give as a gift to a friend - you won't go wrong with this one! | | |  | Insightful and Thorough Mar 21, 2010 |
| I'm now reading Joseph, and I've already read two other character studies in this series by Chuck Swindoll. I've gotten a lot out of all of them. Swindoll does a good job of identifying why the person was and acted the way they did. And he draws many parellels to our lives today. In this book I've learned a lot about the family life Joseph came from: he was a favored son of a passive father. But it's not just the facts that are recounted. Swindoll goes back to study Joseph's father, Jacob, and the behavior and events that shaped him. We learn the impact of all that history on Joseph's life. When the jealous brothers eventually sold him into slavery, this book explores the works God began to do in his life and the immeasurable faith Joseph must have had in order to sustain him through the tough years that followed. I simply enjoy Swindoll's attitude and style. He pulls a lot of wisdom out of the verses in the Bible and helps bring it to life. You can easily imagine yourself in Joseph's shoes and how you would have responded. You learn the lessons of trusting in God through difficult situations and the difference that YOUR attitude can have while you wait. | | | Write your own review about Joseph: Man Of Integrity & Forgivene (Great Lives)
