Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis
Lawrence Kushner's wisdom has illumined many topics
over his forty-year career. Looking back now, in this
retrospective volume of much previously unpublished
thought, we discern a fabric woven with startling colors
and lights. It warms us during the dark times of our
own disbelief even as it brightens our quest for
meaning, faith, identity, community and holiness.
This array of light has now become a book that
often entertains and frequently startles us with flashes
of insight, as Kushner with over 300,000 copies of his
books in print helps us look at: congregational life; laughter; Judaism; family; mysticism; holiness; and the world.
Synopsis
To paraphrase the Talmud, God says, "There ain't room enough in this here world for your ego and Me. You pick." With his signature wit and compassion, Rabbi Kushner refreshes our view of how life shapes us and gently reminds us of the Source of it All.
