Another heart-warming commentary from this longstanding and outstanding Jewish pastor.
I've marked lots of quotes for future reference, but I'll give just one example:
"The early church was not free of the human weaknesses that dog every community. We expect too much of the church when we demand that it be perfect in the here and now. How could it be so as long as we, and others like us, belong? What should characterize the church on earth is not the absence of human failings but the way these are dealt with and the corporate striving to forgive each other and to overcome those failings for God's sake."
The spiritual content of the whole book is exemplified in the prayers that close each chapter. These are a real help in summarizing the practical lessons in each chapter. They are followed by Questions for Discussion and Study. Very helpful.
