Here All Along - Sarah Hurwitz

Author Sarah Hurwitz was busy writing First Lady Michelle Obama’s speeches when she was re-introduced to Judaism, a religion she had only known through Hebrew school and her Bat Mitzvah. Inspired to look more deeply into her missing religious faith in her thirties, she spent thousands of hours studying ancient Jewish texts, querying rabbis and scholars, and debating with herself about the contradictions and paradoxes of Judaism as she explored how to apply its ethical teachings in her own life. Her book is the story of her poignant and often hilarious journey, conveyed in elegant and fluid prose and infused with humility, candor, and profound sensibility.
