When Joshua moves to a small cabin on the edge of town, the local people are at first mystified, then confused by his presence. A quiet and simple man, Joshua appears to seek nothing for himself. He supports himself solely by carpentry and woodworking, and charges very little for his services. Yet his work is exquisite and haunting. What sort to person is Joshua? How can the townspeople explain the strange rumours about him? Some have reported seeing him effortlessly carrying a huge log on his shoulders. Others talk about the dreadfully ill child who recovered after a visit from Joshua. As Joshua quietly becomes involved in the lives of the people of the town, many find themselves transformed by his wisdom and loving heart. Yet some of his neighbors are disturbed by him, others frightened. Finally, some church leaders confront him… An unforgettable story of love and faith, Joshua has moved and inspired millions of readers around the globe. |
