How to Get to the Palace from Your Prison: Joseph's 14 Step Program to Overcome Loneliness, Depression, Discrimination, Barrenness and Abuse (Paperback)

The Biblical story of Joseph is used to uncover a 14-Step Recovery Plan to overcome loneliness, depression, discrimination, barrenness and abuse. The author's spiritual and psychological analysis of Joseph's trials, tribulations, and triumphs reveal to the reader how to achieve the promises of God and arrive at that place of shalom, the Hebrew word for peace. Farrar-Rosemon defines the word to mean "nothing missing and nothing broken" in the reader's life. The author draws on her background as a broker and psychiatric social worker and shares how her personal tragedies and those of other individuals and groups were resolved using this 14-Step Program. This book details statistics on depression, unemployment, abuse, addictions, miscarriage, abortion, HIV/AIDS, discrimination and other social and psychological ills. The Appendix contains national toll-free 800 resource numbers for individuals and groups to connect with so that they can begin the healing process.
