Deep, rich, and nourishing -- 'Joseph' is vintage Lennox. He has the rare gift of opening life as well as the biblical text, so that we come away understanding God's ways more clearly and trusting him more fully.

You may think this story is familiar, but again and again Lennox brings forth new gems in this expert guide through Joseph's dysfunctional family history. Despite the depth of tragedy, God brought hope.
