Review of 'Surprised by God' on 'Goodreads'

I adored this book. Rabbi Ruttenberg is frank, honest, and inspiring in her journey to religion. Despite coming from very different places (I was searching for G!d even as a child, she was a strong atheist until young adulthood), I could relate deeply to her journey. I also found places where this book inspired me in new directions on my own path, and challenged me in areas I have become complacent in. It was also an enjoyable read.
