If you have ever felt lost or let down in life and yet you know God has something more for you, then you are sure to find this book helpful. Join the author in an empathetic reflection on the life of Joseph. See how Joseph behaves and responds to devastating and demoralizing situations in a way that sets him up for his unfathomable success.

The life of Joseph is one of the Bible’s most cherished stories. After a beloved son is betrayed by his resentful brothers, he must endure years of slavery, false accusations, and wrongful imprisonment. At every turn, Joseph’s faith is tested, culminating in a pivotal question: Will he save his brothers in their hour of need? In this dramatic telling, Dr. R.C. Sproul shows how Joseph foreshadows the greater Deliverer, Jesus Christ, and encourages Christians to trust in the sovereign God who works all things for our good.
