1: Excellent Book!
I really enjoyed this book. I would suggest anyone who is considering conversion read this book. I also found another great book you should think about reading if you are considering converting or strengthening your faith or just want to understand your life's meaning . It is entitled "The Enlightenment, What God Told Me After One Million Prayers, a Message for Everyone" by John H. Eagan. This book will bring you closer to understanding who God is and what the meaning of your life is. Whatgodtoldme.com

3: Jew for Jesus
Stan Telchin discovered that Jews can believe Jesus was and is the Messiah AND stay true to their Jewish culture and roots!
In his book, Telchin wonderfully retells the story of how he came to Christ by investigating his daughter's new-found faith. It all began with a phone call from college. Instead of anger, he responded with honest research.
It doesn't matter what religious background you are from... you will want to hear this simple, yet... emotional and intellectual journey from this Jewish businessman. I wish that everyone was as honest as Telchin was in his search.
I read this book in three hours. You will enjoy this quick and enlightening little book.

4: "Betrayed" is a compelling story of Jews coming to Faith
One of the gifts I received on Christmas day was "Betrayed". During lulls in the activity I picked it up and started reading it. I could hardly put it down and finished it today.
Some are critical of Telchin for not being a religious Jew. But that is true of most of the Jews that I know. It was true of my father. He was "Reformed". Family and community were important. God? Well if there was a God - He was not personal or knowable.
Like Telchin, I too became a Christian - coming to believe that Jesus is in fact the Messiah. I know many others of Jewish heritage that have done the same including some who were Orthodox and greatly burdened by the stricture of the Law.
I would encourage any Jew who is searching for meaning to read, "Betrayed". I would also encourage Christians to read it, if they want to understand what it is like for Jews to consider the claim of Jesus that He is the promised Messiah.

5: Literally could not put it down.
This book was reccommended to me, so when I received it from Amazon I opened it right away and started reading. A true story with major life changes that took so much courage, and the fallout that followed...it pulled me in and I literally could not stop reading until I finished the book. That is something that I have never done before. I highly reccommend this book for anyone who reads. Period.
