Converting to Judaism

Endorsements

  “ . . . There is nothing like this book, which speaks so directly and helpfully to Christians and Jews in an interfaith relationship.  Many of the first-person stories read like a suspense thriller.”

— Rabbi Joshua O. Haberman, Rabbi Emeritus,
Washington Hebrew Congregation, Washington, DC (Reform)

  “ . . . It is essential reading for all those who are exploring the process of conversion, essential too for those who are intermarried and wrestling with how to raise their children, and inspiring reading for those who were born Jews and chose to make more of their Judaism.”
— Dr. Michael Berenbaum,
University of Judaism, Los Angeles, CA

  “ . . . Rabbi Weiss’ infectious love of Judaism has no doubt been a great influence on the lives of the many who have sought her out.  She provides her students with a positive view of religious observance, and exposes them to the richness of Orthodox tradition.”
— Rabbi Isaac H. Mann, faculty,
Academy for Jewish Religion, New York (Orthodox)

  “ . . . Rabbi Weiss’ study of people who have chosen Judaism as their life’s faith opens up new understanding of the relationship between student and teacher.  The students tell their own stories, and we are envious of the time they had in her presence.”
— Rabbi Matthew H. Simon, Rabbi Emeritus,
B’nai Israel Congregation, Rockville, MD (Conservative)

  “ . . . It is invaluable to any member of the Jewish community who supports the compelling challenge of Kayruv — to welcome the much needed and much appreciated Jews by Choice into our People.”
— Rabbi Seymour L. Essrog, Past President,
Rabbinical Assembly of America (Conservative)
