The book we are going to discuss together is Heart of a Stranger by Rabbi Angela Buchdahl. Join us to discuss Rabbi Buchdal's "unlikely story of faith, identity and belonging."
About Heart of a stranger: Angela Buchdahl was born in Seoul, the daughter of a Korean Buddhist mother and Jewish American father. Profoundly spiritual from a young age, by sixteen she felt the first stirrings to become a rabbi. Rabbi Buchdahl has gone from outsider to officiant, from feeling estranged to feeling embraced—and she's emerged with a deep conviction that we are all bound to a larger whole and mission. She has written a book that is both memoir and spiritual guide for everyday living, which is exactly what so many of us crave right now.
