Joseph's Dream News (Paperback)

Joseph's Dream News represents ancient stories in a modern newspaper or popular magazine style of reporting for the modern reader who may have little knowledge of ancient past, or of epistemology, psychology, cosmology, theology, astronomy, science, psycholinguistics, politics and religion. Presenting these ancient stories using modern idioms and formats the author makes them come alive in dealing with real life problems, challenges and circumstances in the world today. In ancient characters we can learn something about life and ourselves. Is it possible to see the repeat of history as you read through these headlines? History will show you the future if you understand and gain perspectives from studying narratives of the past. Our story of Joseph's heroic adventures is the timeless tale of a young person who faces many challenges while growing up and how he responds and reacts to these challenges. Core principles enabled Joseph to be a servant of God and to follow his dreams. Tossed into a hole in the ground by his own brothers and then later sold into slavery did not alter Joseph's firm belief that God was with him. Joseph was a possibility thinker, no matter what was happening in the circumstances or changing events of the moment around him he stayed true to his God and his beliefs. Often held in slavery or captivity, Joseph served his fellow man confident that God was with him as he hustled to make his dreams a reality. Joseph's faith in God engendered his high ethical standards early in life and shaped his passion to serve humanity to the best of his ability. He was proactive and took responsibility for acquiring learned lessons from his experiences and by always choosing a positive, life affirming response to dire circumstances. Early in life, Joseph learned time tested sound principles while working on his father's farm. Joseph's principled thinking empowered his honesty, duty, service and problem solving skills. Joseph believed his life purpose was service to God. He believed that in serving others he was serving God. His life of service to others helped to mold his character and shape his choices and options in life. This humble personality is what made him a great leader. However, this did not necessarily mean he always made the right choices in what was best for the people.
