Summary: Approaching God
Comment: "A Baptist Among the Jews" is a passionate blueprint for achieving ecumenical understanding and cooperation. The author has managed to transcend the confines of her narrow fundamentalist origins and allow herself to experience other approaches to the Divine. And "experience" is the key issue in this fascinating story of the author's acceptance and inclusion by the Jewish community. Howe isn't overly concerned with doctrine or dogma. She doesn't bring a list of theological preconceptions or doctrinal preconditions to her relationship with reform, conservative, orthodox, and even hasidic Jews. That a person can actually come closer to God in a faith tradition other than her own is perhaps the central lesson of her book and one that more people would do well to emulate.

Summary: A terrific read . . .
Comment: A Baptist among the Jews is an exuberant, uplifting, and inspiring read for all of us who have found ourselves embarking on a spiritual journey. Mary Howe reveals her excellent grounding in Jewish belief and practice without ever straying far from her own personal experiences. This is one of those rare books that not only engages and absorbs but educates as well. I highly recommend it.
