To Life!: A Celebration of Jewish Being and Thinking
by
One of my favorite quotes.
Rabbi Harold Kushner says: "To be human is to choose to be good. To take something unholy and make it holy, something ordinary into extraordinary. To sanctify the world and live Godly life".
It's a 'good read' and a beginning educational book about Conservative Judaism. I did find though that it was a little biased against non-Jewish faiths in a few areas which kind of surprised me even if it did make me think about a few things. Another thing I did like was that it was also written with humor and wit and the wisdom of his experiences in his life. His connection to God is spiritually lifting.
