“McBrayer offers here a powerful retelling of the story of Joseph that weaves scripture, real life experience, history and headlines into a highly readable and engaging narrative. The common human refrain of suffering, mistrust, deceit and pain is resurrected with new insight into the ways in which forgiveness, trust, integrity and hope can emerge out of the most awful of circumstances. This book offers deep spiritual insight into the daily challenges that confront us all, reminding us that there is meaning even in the context of tragedy and pain.”

“Ronnie McBrayer is a masterful storyteller. In a remarkably refreshing way, he brings us the journey of the Old Testament character of Joseph while teaching us about ourselves each step of the way. As he utilizes such seminal sources as Schindler's List, Hemingway, Shir Lashalom, Charles Swindoll, and his own magnificent grandmother Artie Bearden, he interweaves a cogent,illuminative, congruent masterpiece which sends us on our way stronger, better, and wiser.”

“Ronnie has a great knack for story telling and uses it to help us find ourselves in the ancient words of the Bible. Joseph's life comes alive in a fresh and powerful way that is filled with drama and humor, challenge and inspiration.”
