Many of us drift from our faith but we can come back and be inspired by the main characters of this book. If you enjoyed Albom's book Tuesday's With Morrie then you will surely like this book. Albom spent 8 years in conversation with his childhood Rabbi in preparation to write his eulogy. Once you start this book you don't want it to end as you become very close to the main characters the Rabbi and Henry the Preacher. The book is filled with wit and wisdom that would appeal to readers of multiple faiths. I highly recommend reading this book. ( )Mitch Albom's Tuesdays with Morrie encouraged the soul and challenged the reader. Have a Little Faith, Albom's most recent nonfiction is no different. It is a simple story about two very different men of faith and their impact on Albom's journey. It is an enjoyable and encouraging read, a bit slow, yet powerful story of how our lives shape others. Very good. Many touching moments. A minister who was a drug addict and a senior rabbi who asks Mitch to do his eulogy. They never meet but have compassion in common and many similar views on religion. Enjoyable read with a considerable amount of wisdom from the thoughts and lives of two very different men of God, Albert Lewis, a long-time New Jersey rabbi and Henry Covington, former drug dealer and present Detroit pastor. The book is a good testimony to the power of faith to change lives, and the power to God to instill faith. This book came to me at a good time. It is a fast, enjoyable read with a considerable amount of wisdom from the thoughts and lives of two very different men of God, Albert Lewis, a long-time New Jersey rabbi and Henry Covington, former drug dealer and present Detroit pastor. The book is a good testimony to the power of faith to change lives, and the power to God to instill faith (even in the author, and maybe in the reader). Highly recommended.
Albom writes, as he always does, with a loving hand, revealing great intimacies that touch the heart. Like TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE, HAVE A LITTLE FAITH reminds us that, despite our differences, we are all human beings experiencing life, love, hatred and death; with any luck in our lifetimes, we will “be satisfied,” “be grateful.”
