Fact or Fiction: Joseph’s wife Asenath was held captive in a tower before she married Joseph? Well, I counted it as sort of both. An ancient Jewish novel, written sometime between 200 B.C. and 200 A.D., tells the story of Joseph and Asenath. It was reworked a few centuries later as ancient Christian fiction!

A baby’s giggle can turn tears of grief into a hopeful smile. But a child’s rebellion can affect the whole family. How do I know? Well, we’ll save my personal story for future posts.
