Floating Takes Faith
Author: David J. Wolpe
Publisher: Behrman House, Inc
ISBN: 9780874417333
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
We are taught to study, to learn, and to let ourselves grow Jewishly. But where does being the "people of the book" get us in the real world? David Wolpe's collection of essays responds to this question by exploring how Jewish values, such as scholarship and compassion, together with Jewish practice, enhance an individual's private and public life. How does Shabbat help deflect us from the pressures of the societal rat-race? How can Jewish learning subdue political unrest? Rabbi Wolpe draws the lessons of this collection from a variety of religious and historical sources, finding the importance of Israel in a Robert Frost poem, the nature of God in the words of Beowulf, and parenting lessons in the fatherly techniques of King David. The essays address diverse topics ranging from assimilation to Zionism to Jewish concepts of life and death. Rabbi Wolpe asks the questions, sometimes profound, sometimes light-hearted, that challenge us to consider how we live as Jews, how our Jewish lives are influenced by our secular surroundings, and how we can develop our Jewish souls by continuing to learn from new sources while remaining open to spiritual growth. Some of these questions include: Is it wrong to admire Kant, Voltaire, and Roald Dahl if they were anti-Semitic? How can we reconcile our American family traditions with our Jewish family traditions? In an evolutionary debate, do God and Steven Pinker stand behind opposite podiums? Do we need such a thing as a Jewish home? A Jewish homeland? Why does Walt Whitman think we should stay awake during the rabbi's sermon? What lessons of aging gracefully can we learn from Rabbi Akiba and Grandma Moses? An ideal gift for teachers, Confirmation students, grads, and new families that join the congregation.

Pages : 320
Book Description
The Big Sick meets Dad is Fat in this funny and heartfelt New York Times bestselling memoir from writer, director, wife, and mother, Jeannie Gaffigan, as she reflects on the life-changing impact of her battle with a pear-sized brain tumor. In 2017, Jeannie's life came to a crashing halt when she was diagnosed with a life-threatening brain tumor. As the mother of 5 kids -- 6 if you include her husband -- sat in the neurosurgery department in star-covered sweats too whimsical for the seriousness of the situation, all she could think was "Am I going to die?" Thankfully, Jeannie and her family were able to survive their time of crisis, and now she is sharing her deeply personal journey through this miraculous story: the challenging conversations she had with her children; how she came to terms with feeling powerless and ferociously crabby while bedridden and unable to eat for a month; and how she ultimately learned, re-learned and re re-learned to be more present in life. With sincerity and hilarity, Jeannie invites you into her heart (and brain) during this trying time, emphasizing the importance of family, faith and humor as keys to her recovery and leading a more fulfilling life.

Pages : 43
Book Description
When God promised his servant Abraham that He would bless him and make him a great nation, and cause him to inherit a land that flowed with milk and honey, God's Word was sealed in truth. Yet four hundred years later when it was time for Abraham's descendants to receive the promise, they were delayed a whole generation in doing so because of lack of faith. Of the twelve spies Moses sent out to spy out the land God had promised the Children of Israel, all twelve agreed that the land was exceptionally good, and abundant with provision; but only two of the twelve came back with a positive report of their ability to overcome the occupants that were currently living in the land, and only one of the twelve walked in the "perfect faith" that would allow them to overcome and possess the bountiful land God had promised them.Have you ever imagined what it would be like to walk in perfect faith to achieve your greatest dreams, face your greatest challenges, or win major battles in your life? This book, by Annette Bonner, Five Steps to Walking in Perfect Faith is a treasure map that will lead you to uncover the buried treasure of "Perfect Faith" for the promises God has planned for your life.
