Beautiful book.
God Sent A Man is the story of Joseph, who allowed himself to be prepared by God to play a crucial role in the history of Egypt and especially in the development of what became the nation of Israel. This author is excellent at his writing and creating word pictures.

From the author's foreword . . .
"It is in my mind to produce in your mind a profound and unshakable conviction that will alter your whole outlook in life and provide you with a philosophy that will transform your life from a meaningless conglomeration of fortuitous changes into a meaningful and divinely arranged plan."
The story of Joseph, son of Jacob, "constitutes the most fascinating and impressive tale in the literature of humanity."
"Men and nations are in God's hand. . . in everything God works for good with those who love him."

This author has a real gift for writing and making it real. This is an incredible book about how God took a Hebrew boy from favorite child, to slave, to prisoner, to ruler of Egypt. I first read this book in the 1980's and have since read it several times. I try to keep 2 or 3 copies on hand to give away to whomever may benefit from the message. It has helped me tremendously to understand that God prepares us for his purposes in the most unlikely ways. You will definitely receive a blessing from reading this book.
