Moments of the HEART

“The book is very powerful and beautiful. It is passionate, spiritual, and well-reasoned—three things that don’t always go together. I love the analysis of the word matzpun and its variety of related meanings. I was profoundly moved by the journey Horenstein took.”

–Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, author of A Code of Jewish Ethics

“I highly recommend this book for anyone seeking guidance and direction for improving one’s life by drawing on the wisdom found in the texts of Judaism. This is a thoughtful and insightful work of an Israeli-American woman which speaks directly from the heart.”

–Rabbi Joshua Stampfer, Rabbi Emeritus of Congregation Neveh Shalom

“Veteran educator Dorice Horenstein brings her passion for learning and healing to each page of Moments of the Heart. Everyone will find something new in the connections she creates between Hebrew language, Jewish concepts, and Jewish spirituality.”

–Mel Berwin, Director of Congregational Learning of Congregation Neveh Shalom

“As Dorice beautifully explains in the beginning of this book, the heart is at the core of everything we do. Yet, today’s world moves fast. We react rather than respond. We forget to take a moment and check in with ourselves. Moments of the Heart brings us back to center, to what is important in life. The discussions, lessons, and practices shared in this book reconnect us to the core of ourselves and of our community. This book returns us to our heart and is especially relevant to those in leadership who are working, sometimes at great odds, to build a more compassionate and healthier world.”

–Lisa Berkley, Ph.D., Councilwoman in Marina, CA

“Dorice has written a book with heart that combines her own modern take on life with that of ancient Jewish wisdom. If you are at a turning point in your life, this precious book most likely will speak to you.”

–Cherie Koller Fox, Jewish Chaplaincy Council of Massachusetts and the Rabbi Emerita at Congregation Eitz Chayim in Cambridge, MA
