Publisher's summary

Are we hapless victims of life's whims? Are we driven along by some blind and impersonal force? Are we battered by circumstances beyond all control?

A thousand times, "No!" says pastor and author Alistair Begg. Instead, Begg says we are the objects of God's providential care. We reside under his guiding and protecting hand.

In this richly textured study of Joseph's life, listeners will discover God at work shaping Joseph's circumstances so that he can ultimately redeem and reconcile his family. And they'll see the hand of God in their own lives, lovingly guiding them through their disappointments and struggles to a place of peace.

It's an amazing and comforting fact: God rules and overrules in the circumstances of life. God's authority is neither capricious nor vindictive - quite the contrary - God works through the circumstances of life to bring about something miraculous, something abundantly good, even out of what we perceive to be our darkest moments. We can entrust the baggage of our past, the fears of our present, and the prospects of our future to the God who cares.

So glad I listened!

Alistair Begg hasn’t disappointed me yet. His books are spot on and easy to understand. I ordered a hard copy from Truth for Life and gave it away to a lady in UNCH who had just found out her husband had terminal cancer. So glad I did. I highly recommend this book!

Worthwhile. Comforting, Inspiring, Wholesome.

Out of about 40-50 purchased audible books, this was surely one of my favorites. It’s read in a pleasant manner, and the content is endearing, wholesome, and engenders better faith in God and love for one another.

David Cochran Heath also reads an audio Bible as well. His reading is quality, clear and good.

If you’re an ordinary struggling Christian, I think you won’t go wrong giving this one a listen.

I may listen again and I don’t usually do that.

Beautifully Points to Christ

So many lessons to be learned from the life of Joseph: faith, forgiveness, mercy, gentleness, leadership… but what I loved the most is how his life paralleled the Savior to come! Long before Jesus would come to pay for our sins, Joseph lived a life, from which we can take a page, that we too should parallel in our daily lives as we strive to be like Christ . This book beautifully illustrates this!

powerful story of God's love and redeeming Grace!

What a powerful look at the vastness of God's love and redeeming grace, the completeness of his forgiveness, the trustworthiness of his sovereignty. I'm going to turn around and read/listen to it again.
