For those of us whose dreams have been shattered, there is
overwhelming hope in the ancient story of Joseph in the Bible. Joseph's winding tale of great
promise and repeated betrayal, of soaring rise and catastrophic fall, of persevering faith and
profound struggle, provide the backdrop for Jerry White's stirring lessons for our own lives today.
We learn that "the Joseph Plan" is also "the God Plan" for all our lives. Not an analytical
treatment of Joseph's life but much more casual and informal, Jerry writes in his trademark
conversational and inspiring style. He links lessons from Joseph's life seamlessly to our own, and
we get to see our own struggles in a new light - one of powerful hope.
The Joseph Road explores how practical, everyday choices are crucial to determining
our destiny. We experience how these choices work out in real life and what we can do to
influence them. Joseph's choices worked for and against him - but ultimately proved him to be a
man of God and a great leader. In 18 short chapters, Jerry White follows Joseph's twisting road
from favor in his father's house through betrayal by his brothers through being sold into slavery
and his rise, painful fall, and dramatic rise again to prophetic leadership in Egypt.
Dr. Jerry White, international president emeritus of The Navigators, is a popular speaker at
conferences and churches.
