This was a short but powerful reminder to not lose sight of the fact that God is good regardless of one's circumstances. Using the Old Testament story of Joseph, Lucado brings home 10 points to show how God used Joseph's trials to ultimately save the world from the years of famine. It was a great reminder to anyone going through a difficult time to trust in the goodness of a God who loves them and wants their best. This came at a poignant time for me and I was super glad for the reminder. Special thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for an advance e-copy of this book. I was under no obligation to provide a review and the thoughts contained herein are my own.

Brilliant. Should be designated reading for EVERY YEAR 7 STUDENT IN THE WORLD

There is a lot we can learn from the life of Joseph. From the bottom of the pit, to his rise to power in Egypt, few experienced the highest highs and lowest lows like Joseph did. This book is a short but interesting study of his life and dependence on God, with thoughtful reflection questions to direct the reader to trust God in life s most difficult times, building faith, forgiveness, patience, and more. Additionally, seven brief devotions in the back of the book are honest and encouraging. An easy yet helpful and enjoyable read.
