Book of the Week: The Hand of God

This week's Book of the Week is "The Hand of God" by Alistair Begg. I received this book as a present from a pastor-friend of mind in NY, before leaving for Brazil. Reading it this past week was a great pleasure.

"The Hand of God" is an in-depth look at the life of Joseph. Begg takes him from childhood to the grave, all the while making timely applications for today's believer. Of particular benefit to me were his chapters on temptation and forgiveness.

I must admit that when I began to read the book, I felt something was missing. Then I began to read, imagining the words being pronounced in Begg's native Scottish accent, and the book came alive. He writes like he speaks.

I did a little research and discovered Alistair Begg's Truth for Life broadcast available as a podcast here.

As always, below is a link to the book on Amazon. You can also visit previous book-of-the-week offerings here, as well as check out our library and book store.
