LIKE WATER ON A ROCK – True stories of spiritual transformation

Do you believe in heroes? Why would a perfectly healthy woman give her kidney away to a stranger?

Do you believe that people can change? Follow the spiritual journey of a Muslim from Kuwait, whose maternal grandmother whispers Hebrew prayers in the darkness of night.

Do you believe in the power of a story? True stories that take us to a palace in Tehran and a stuffy New York traffic court; stories that introduce us to a group of Ethiopian Jews searching for the Temple in Jerusalem and to the only Jewish chaplain in Iraq; stories of wandering and inspiration, of challenge and triumph.

Featuring some of today’s best Jewish writers from the trailblazing website Aish.com, here is a collection of thought-provoking, moving essays that shows us the power and possibilities that lie within every one of us.

We are taught that the great Talmudic scholar, Rabbi Akiva, realized that Torah, like drop after drop of water, has immeasurable power – and he transformed himself from an ignorant shepherd to one of Judaism’s greatest teachers. In Like Water on a Rock we meet dozens of fascinating people who harnessed the power of Jewish wisdom and belief to transform their lives – demonstrating how we can, too.
