Synopsis

For over forty years, Rebbetzin Esther Jungreis has been a globetrotting spokeswoman for Judaism. Whether counseling a searching soul or addressing a packed house in Madison Square Garden, her message is elegantly universal, while simultaneously addressing the specific needs of contemporary Jews. In Life is a Test, the Rebbetzin's uncompromising convictions, her insights on faith, her soul-stirring wisdom, and her palpable love of all people saturate every word.

Life is a Test is really three audiobooks in one, each bearing a particular focus to help listeners find the hidden significance in challenging circumstances. The audiobook begins with tests of self-discovery and then examines the challenging realm of interpersonal relationships, concluding with a section on perceiving Divine Design in the big picture of global events, as well as in one's own world. Regardless of age or experience, people of all persuasions will find meaningful substance in Life is a Test. Rebbetzin Jungreis has captured many of our deep-seated questions, and has graciously provided us with a decipherable answer key.

Goodreads review by Chana on January 31, 2009

She knows so many stories, I often wonder how she can remember so many stories, an uplifting, spiritually awakening story for each individual and their needs. This woman is a living, walking, speaking embodiment of our Torah and she reaches out to everyone to help them. She is successful at it too.......more
