This is an excellent, uplifting book that uses lessons learned from the Biblical story of Joseph and applies them to modern life's challenges. There's also a very in-depth set of questions for each chapter at the end of the book. I hadn't realized that until I got to the end and I wished I'd done the questions chapter by chapter instead of all at the end, but they did include handy page references and memory joggers. I think the questions make it so that this book would be nice for book clubs as well as solo personal growth seekers.

People, especially Christians, but anyone open to Biblical teaching, looking to gain strength and wisdom to get through a difficult period of life.

Max's writing style. It felt like a friend was sharing his stories and lessons as I read the book.

Share it with a bunch of people, particularly one family member... but she told me never to send her books so instead I'm reviewing it here and hoping others will enjoy it as much as I did.

Understood and hopeful.

It's helpful, encouraging, and uplifting and based on Biblical truth. Although the author takes a lot of literary license in making the ancient stories come alive in a modern way, I think it makes it a more engaging read and more accessible to most people.

I borrowed a copy of this book from my local library.
