Product Description

The integrity, hopes, and fierce pride of Orthodox Judaism are highlighted in this lively, semi-autobiographical account of the founding and growth of a New Jersey synagogue. With warmth and candor, the narrator Randy Diamond—a young Jewish family man—de- scribes his commitment to his faith and to Jewish youth, as well as his dismay with a religious establishment that was not properly serving the Jewish community. The struggle of Randy, his family, and friends to establish a synagogue dedicated to the spiritual education of the young is stirring and often humorous, encompassing everything from bitter confrontations with vindictive rabbis, to a close encounter with a demolition crew's wrecking ball.

Randy's reminiscence spans the sixties and seventies, and includes moving, prideful descriptions of Jewish rites of passage: Bar Mitzvahs, weddings, and the birth of grandchildren. The synagogue survives against all odds, bringing happiness and spiritual growth to all who worship there.

Inspiring for readers of all faiths, My House of God will have special meaning for young Jewish men and women who are trying to find their way in an increasingly secular America.
