Description
The Amen Effect: Ancient Wisdom to Mend Our Broken Hearts and World by Sharon Brous
In a world marked by loneliness and isolation, social rupture and alienation, what is needed to mend our broken hearts and rebuild our society? Rabbi Sharon Brous makes the case for the spiritual work of our time, which is to find our way to one another in celebration, in sorrow, and in solidarity. She argues that it is through honoring our most basic human instinct - the yearning for real connection - that we reawaken our shared humanity and begin to heal.
Through a combination of heart-driven anecdotes, ancient Jewish wisdom, and contemporary science, Brous offers a clarion call: the sense of belonging engendered by our genuine presence is not only a social and biological need, but a moral and spiritual necessity. This book provides original insights and practical tools to connect us to our better angels, offering a blueprint for a more meaningful life and a more connected and caring world.
