out of the pits and into the pie

A well-read friend pleaded with me to read this, said it was hands down one of the great books. I agree I have purchased copies to share with about five people so far. why? Because this author looks very carefully at what happens to Joseph in a simple and plain way, piece by piece. But, he is bringing forward the glory of the good news for every persons life. Good news? Yes. You will see with the writer that very bad things can be very very good when God is allowed to finish them.

Awesome Book!

God's viewpoint differs from man's. He tells us that in Isaiah. We can be assured, however that "The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me" (Psalm 138:8). Dr. Kendall uses the incident of Joseph being sold into slavery, then promoted to ruler to illustrate the mysterious ways of God's "behind the scenes" work. A discussion of dreams is given in the early part of the book. We're reminded that often other people are jealous of those who dream big. Faith is involved in God-given, God-sustained dreams. "The way God often tests our faith is to bring us to places where there is no known precedent" the author tells us (p. 39).An encouraging poing is made about God's timing. We're told He is never too early or too late and that "God can accomplish a lot in a very short period of time" (p. 40).The next point to consider is that trials have significance. They aren't random acts. No matter how senseless they seem, we are to maintain a healthy (positive) attitude during the period of testing.God manifests Himself in the arena of the miraculous. "God wanted to show that what is utterly impossible with man is absolutely possible with God" (p. 56).With Joseph as an example, Dr. Kendall writes, "God had a plan for Joseph that was greater than anything that could be seen at the time" (p. 62).We're reminded "If God wants to put us in a particular place, He can do it..." (p. 71).This book contains numerous truths that encourage, instruct, and edify. Buy it and read it slowly and prayerfully.

One of my top 5 books of all time!

This is a great book for any one who has spent time in a "dungeon" of any kind. RT Kendall works through the life of Joseph from being hated and betrayed by his brothers to being exalted to the palaces of Egypt. There are tremendous life lessons to be learned from this book. Highly recommended!!

God Meant It For Good by R.T. Kendall

This is an excellent resource for individuals who are convinced God has called them to a place of significant ministry, but whose lives seem racked with troubles and obstacles to the realization of their vision.Using the Old Testament historical Joseph as an example of his principle, R.T. Kendall lays out a critically important phase in the life of any person who has been or will be greatly used by God, and that is PREPARATION FOR MINISTRY THROUGH PURIFICATION.How filled with hope this book is; how enlightening and applicable to one's own personal journey. It helps make sense of the mysterious and sometimes painful period between calling and fulfillment of a ministry.Highly recommended for serious disciples of the Lord.

An Excellent Book to Read

This book is by far the best book I've ever read next to the Bible. It is especially good if you are going through a major trial in your life. It helps you understand the why's of what's happening to you as you go through your trial.
