  This is an existential christian book based on the life of Joseph in the Jedeo christian bible. It's goal is to encourage others who maybe facing diverse challenges and need a word of assurance. This book isn't writen to convert or necessarily strengthen someone's faith but to help others deal with the challenges of life. There isn't any sermonizing or the use of cliche words of affirmation but the use of Jungian psychology and philosophy, with Friedrich Nietzsche being a strong influence.
  This book isn't completely as yet but will be one chapter at a time. I haven't edited it as as I am waiting to complete the first draft but I am putting it out there to see if it makes sense to others. This is my first book.
