Jewish dedication and commitment to studying Scripture is nothing short of inspiring. Jews have long been known as careful examiners of the Bible, dedicated to understanding and growing from God's word. In traditional synagogues, the Torah is read three times per week, and each week, one of the Torah portions is examined. These encounters not only allow Jews to study God's instruction for faith but also provide valuable inspiration for living that faith in the everyday. In *Shalom for the Heart*, popular author and speaker Rabbi Evan Moffic reveals the wisdom of the Torah for today's Christians. Beautifully written weekly Torah-inspired devotions are offered to encourage readers throughout the year. Through his readings, Moffic invites Christians to engage in a study pattern of the Jewish founders of the faith, to grow deeper in relationship with Jesus, and find meaning, comfort, and direction for our lives.Endorsement: "Most Christians--myself certainly included--have so much to learn from the Jewish tradition and the study of the Torah, and from Judaism's respect for the law and value on ritual and connection within their community. ... This book is a gift for every Christian, anchoring us to a beautiful shared history that can deepen and enrich our understanding and our faith." Shauna Niequist, best-selling author and speaker

If you are well versed in scripture, this is an enjoyable read to get a different perspective on well known passages. But there are some real boners. Eg today I read that 'the Torah was written in 586 BCE' which is hilarious. In Deuteronomy 18:18 Moses spells out that when Israel gets kings they are to write a copy of the Torah and read it every day. Writing was very common even that early in history. Writing is mentioned all the time in the Old Testament. So, this book should be read with caution.
