Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I Just finished reading this book and I can honestly say that I feel refreshed. Rabbi Kaunfer has shown how we can make Judaism relevant, and above all, meaningful in our contemporary lives. He shows us how to take control of this gift and revitalize it for the average Jew! It also is a great guide for anyone considering starting up their own independent minyan (prayer group). I would recommend this book anyone already in a Jewish community but especially those evaluating their place in the Jewish world and open to a radical new Jewish future!
