Subtitled “An Invitation to a Life of Spiritual Discipline,” Winner explains for readers Orthodox Jewish practices surrounding the Sabbath, fasting, mourning, prayer, hospitality and more, with suggestions on ways Christians could incorporate aspects of these practices into their own lives. The book is short and interesting reading for the curious and open minded person. I enjoyed learning about Orthodox Jewish customs, and well as their history and context as I was only familiar with some of them.
Although this book was originally published in 2003, it is being re-released with updated material and discussion questions in each chapter, which would make this a good book for church groups or book clubs open to spiritual discussion. 3.5 stars.
Thank you to NetGalley and Paracelete Press for a galley of this book in exchange for an honest review.
