A Baptist Among the Jews

Rating:
Summary: Disarming passion...
Review: With the disarming passion of a neophyte (but without
leaving her own faith behind), Howe plunges into the
rich world of traditional Judaism, emerging with
jewels from which all of us can profit: a profound
sense of God's holiness, an insatiable hunger for and
love of God's Word, and an understanding of the
importance of ritual and community. Howe's friendship
with the Jewish people and her deep spiritual
experiences amidst them bring a whole new dimension to
her Christian faith, and her winsome story encourages
those of us who have yet to embrace our Jewish roots
to enrich our journey by crossing the cultural and emotional barriers that so often separate us from our spiritual kin.
