Have a Little Faith
Description
The audio's most memorable moments feature the humility-and eccentricity-of the two spiritual leaders who, despite their deep religious commitment, refuse to be placed on a pedestal. A Hyperion hardcover. Albom delivers a command audio performance. From the ail-ing Jewish leader breaking out into whimsical songs in the middle of his grueling medical treatments and his Christian counterpart savoring the joys of barbecuing, Albom's characterizations brim with humor and compassion. . He brings his two clergymen-protagonists-an elderly rabbi from Albom's home synagogue and an African-American pastor leading a ministry to Detroit's homeless population-to vivid life and conveys their messages of faith wit

"A masterpiece."--Publishers Weekly "In the beginning there was a question. Jakes, Chief Pastor, The Potter's House "Everybody should read it."--Hoda Kotb in People, Best Book of 2009. Now including a new chapter for the paperback edition. In truth, I was being given one" "An absolute wonder--tender, transporting, and deeply moving."--Scott Turow, author of Presumed Innocent "The nonfiction equivalent to Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist."--Sydney Morning Herald "A faith journey that could become a classic."--Jim Wallis, author of The Great Awakening "Albom helps show the true definition of 'Church.' It is not the building, it is the people and their faith."--Bishop T.D. 'Will you do my eulogy' As is often the case with faith, I thought I was being asked a favor
Larry Underwood said More Than Just a Little Faith. Mitch Albom has been one of my favorite sportswriters for years; his style is eloquent, yet concise and very witty. His words are well-chosen when he writes and this particular effort is no exception. It's terrific.This is a remarkable, true story of contrast, of two men of God; one an aging rabbi, and the other, an African American pastor working in a ghetto. Two men---two different faiths; two entirely different backgrounds. In the end, the message is clear: Faith. Just beautiful!!! JustReading2008 Positively LOVED this book. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this is quite possibly my favorite Mitch Albom book -- and I've read them all!This is not a fiction story. It is a real story of two men -- a rabbi and a Christian minister -- cleverly woven together by the author. It is the story of not just having faith in God or yourself, but in other people as well. People aren't always what we think they are at first glance (or second, or third) but if we gi. An AMAZING Read! Art Odom This book will make you laugh and cry. It will make you reexamine your own faith and your life. Mitch Albom did the world a favor with this beautiful story of a journey with two men who took very different paths but still introduced so many others to God.
