Publisher Notes
Each generation produces a new teacher with a healing view of loss the mystery and difficulty no one can avoid. It was the loss that surrounded him that led David Wolpe to become a rabbi. He questioned not why we lose so much but how we could use this inevitable experience as a source of strength rather than despair. "Could I," he asked, "with the powers of my own hand and heart,...turn a painful, inexplicable loss into a generator of purpose and of hope?" The answer has been a resounding yes.
Through the wisdom of ancient stories, the great rabbis, poets, and philosophers, and Wolpe's own experience as a rabbi, a son, a grandson, a husband, and a father, this beautifully written book shows us how to find faith in difficulty the faith, hope, and purpose that help us to survive.
