You Can’t Keep A Good Man Down (Summer Of 2002)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 15, 2022

Joseph took this obstacle (being sold into slavery by his brothers) and turned it into an opportunity. He had every reason to be bitter and resentful. His attitude made all the difference.

Joseph's Monologue - A Christmas Play Series

Contributed by Eduardo Quintana on Oct 29, 2021

This is a powerful Christmas monologue. Christmas from the eyes of Joseph. A proper production can be very powerful.

Did you know that Joseph has no speaking parts in the Christmas story? The Bible never quotes anything that Joseph said. With that in mind, I want to take some creative liberties and put some words into Joseph's mouth. It's important to let you all know that this piece is just a creative ...read more
