Joseph: A Story About a Family

by Stephen V. Elliott

Home is where the story begins for each of us. The stamp of life was placed on us there. All we are today traces its way back to our parents and siblings, our contexts and circumstances, our sorrows and pains, our joys and discoveries. Home really is where our story begins. And Joseph, the subject of this book, had a home.

Essentially, all of life revolves around two sets of relationships: ours with God and ours with one another. In the pages of Joseph: A Story About a Family, Stephen Elliott unpacks one of the most commonly shared Old Testament stories, helping readers discover that God is findable in the midst of the relationships that shape and misshape everyday life. When all is said and done, Joseph’s story is a story about a family. Maybe even your family.

[Mary Ellin · Rating 4 out of 5]

If you struggle to love and forgive your family - and who among us hasn’t at one time or another? - you must read “Joseph: A Story About a Family” by Stephen V. Elliott. If there’s redemption and forgiveness for Jacob and his utterly broken and dysfunctional household, there’s hope for all of us. (Rated 4 instead of 5 due to a number of unfortunate typos and editing errors that should have been caught before publication.)
