What is Your Favorite Jewish Book (Other Than the Torah and the Talmud)? (Ask the Rabbis‪)‬

Chabad Words from the heart may be lofty and inspiring, but they are emotions (regesh). Then there is soul, hergesh. Hergesh describes Tova Mordechai's book Playing with Fire, which chronicles her life in the evangelical church of her father, the minister, and her improbable return to the faith of her mother, the Jewish woman from Egypt. Such a story is usually fraught with emotional tension and filled with information about the inner workings of an evangelical mind. Mordechai doesn't go there. Her book is words from the soul.
