Synopsis "Eat This Book!: Strength for Your Journey with the Jewish Jesus"
Rabbi Stuart Dauermann holds an MA and PhD in Intercultural Studies. He is a Messianic Jewish futurist who focuses on increasing understanding and enriching community life at the intersection of the Jewish and Christian worlds. "What does it mean to be a Jewish disciple of Yeshua? Where does one begin? Rabbi Dauermann answers these questions in highly practical, gastronomical, and inspiring ways. It is a must-read for all Jewish people who want to start the journey of following Israel's Messiah on the right foot, and for members of the tribe who have been walking this walk for a while and need a refresher, and food for thought. Eat This Book! is a go-to resource on Messianic Jewish discipleship and spiritual formation!"David Rudolph, PhDDirector of Messianic Jewish StudiesThe King's University "Rabbi Stuart Dauermann has done it again. Eat This Book! is a creative, erudite, and often humorous guide for discipleship that is 'user-friendly and Judaism-positive.' It is a contribution that has been missing and desperately needed, a helpful curriculum primarily for discipling Jews as Jews. It will also benefit anyone from any background who wants to grow and mature spiritually in their faith. I highly recommend this work and look forward to using it within my own congregation."Rabbi Joshua BrumbachPresident, Messianic Jewish Rabbinical Counciland Senior Rabbi of Congregation Simchat Yisrael, West Haven, CT "This is an amazing book, a lovely book, so well expressed. It is an engaging book and will benefit all who seek to apply it."Daniel Juster, ThD, of Restoration from Zion, First President and General Secretary of the UMJC "Rabbi Dauermann has invited us to the banquet table for a sumptuous feast, from the goblet of prayer to a parting glezel tei. Seasoned with Jewish background for a deeper understanding, it is not an abstract work of theological speculation, but rather a practical menu that liberally employs a food metaphor motif. To miss out on this repast is to miss a five-star delight that will enrich your palate and reignite your taste buds for the spiritual fête ahead. The proof of the pudding is in the reading. Definitely, Eat This Book!"Rabbi Elliot Klayman, JDPast President, Union of Messianic Jewish CongregationsInstructor, Messianic Jewish Theological InstituteExecutive Director, Messianic Literature Outreach "How can we weave discipleship to Rabbi Yeshua into the fabric of our lives? Rabbi Stuart Dauermann presents an organic approach to Messianic Jewish spirituality at home and around the table, with clear and compelling recipes guiding Jewish disciples of Yeshua and their families toward growth in prayer, Torah learning, Shabbat, and other core practices that make being a follower of Messiah a joy and a delight."Rabbi Yahnatan Lasko Beth Messiah Congregation, Rockville, MD
