Rezensionen

Life is a Test von Esther Jungreis

Rebbetzin Esther Jungreis‘ book is a must have for those who feel they are floundering, and feel they are being tested by the struggles and adversity presented before them. Life is a Test is a building block to help one succeed in their goals, succeed in making correct choices, and succeed in understanding the illuminations that self-discovery brings them. Each stage is enhanced through the power of Torah, Talmud, prayer and reflection. It is more than a self-help book, or book of inspiration.
