Tales for the Soul Volume 3 Learn More

Two yeshivah students found themselves in the outback area of Queensland, Australia. They had been part of a team of young men who drove the Chabad mitzvah mobiles for weeks in the summer to outlying areas. Evidently they had taken a wrong turn and ended up far away from their intended destination. A man, surprised to see yeshivah students in this remote area, asked: "What are two nice Jewish boys doing here?" ''Actually,'' one of them replied, "we were asking ourselves the same question. But now that we have met you, we know exactly why we're here. Excuse me, are you Jewish? Would you like to put on teftllin?"

From Anchorage, Alaska, to Surfers Paradise, Australia; from Novosibirsk, Siberia, to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; from Kinshasa, Congo, to Beijing, China, and everywhere in between, you'll find Chabad representatives. In candid-camera snapshots of how these men, women, and children live their lives of mission, Malka Touger tells more than a hundred stories which enable us to appreciate the unseen hand of Divine Providence, how the hearts of Jews are alive and seek to identify with their heritage, and how each one of us, if we just set ourselves to the task, can bring about miracles in microcosm.

It Wasn't How It Seemed Learn More

A schoolteacher on the brink of marriage learns, firsthand, what a broken heart feels like.

An Orthodox judge sends a small-time criminal to prison ... and finds his life turned upside-down by sudden tragedy.

Five years later, both Sara Muller and Judge Daniel Newman have managed to put heartbreak behind them and are busy leading useful — if lonely — lives. Then evil strikes again, in the form of one man’s unquenchable thirst for revenge. He is determined to get it and nothing will stand in his way. No means are too horrifying for him to contemplate. Daniel’s own children become pawns in a terrifying game whose rules he cannot begin to understand. And -- though he does not know it yet — only Sara Muller holds the key to the stalker’s identity.

As a judge, Daniel has heard and seen evil. As a teacher, Sara has worked with the victims of tragedy. But neither has ever been a target. Now, their faith and their wits are tested as never before.

The Judge is the newest spine-tingler by Libby Lazewnik, author of Secret Accounts and many other acclaimed novels. This remarkable book provides edge-of-your-seat suspense while plumbing the depths of the human heart -- an unbeatable combination. Learn More
