The story of Joseph as recorded in the book of Genesis is a vital part of salvation history. Through this one man God kept alive the family from which Jesus Christ the Saviour of the world would be born. It is a glorious story and the one that David Searle tells in his new book.
‘Joseph, His Arms Were Made Strong’ takes up and illustrates many truths vital for Christian living. It is relevant to contemporary trends and opinions both in society and the church. It draws upon long pastoral experience and is full of the down-to-earth examples. The author is direct in addressing the reader and asks some personal questions. This underlines the helpfulness of the lessons drawn from Joseph’s life and makes the reading a stimulus and guide to spiritual growth.
