Advance Praise for God in the Wilderness:“This book speaks to people of all faiths who have a hunger for reconnecting with the God of their own understandings and traditions.”—Trudy Harris, R.N., author of Glimpses of Heaven“A small book with powerful messages … Interpreting biblical passages and centuries of commentary, Rabbi Korngold shows how each of us can find the spiritual meaning we seek by slowing down, going outdoors, and exulting in the grandeur of nature.”—Myra H. Strober, professor of education, Stanford University“Weaving ancient teachings with personal and profound experiences in the wilderness, Rabbi Korngold provides a wonderful trail map for each of our journeys. She leads us to an appreciation of the joy that awaits us if we commit to walking in the natural world that is God’s gift.”—Rabbi Peter J. Rubinstein, Central Synagogue, New York City
