I wrote this story several years ago when my teenage son embraced Orthodox Judaism. I was trying to understand his faith... and my own spirituality, such as it was. Where does faith come from? Once we come to some sort of faith, do we always have it? What destroys faith? How does faith emerge from suffering or tragedy? Are we "predestined" to believe, or is it free will? All of those thoughts were rambling around my brain. "Josef's Angel" was a way to frame those questions around what I hope you will find is a mysterious but satisfying story.
