Have a Little Faith by Mitch Albom

I read this book for the second time lately as our Bonus Book Club was discussing it in June. I can repeat my favorable reactions after writing about it in this blog January of 2010. All who attended the discussion also enjoyed Albom's approach to issues of faith and religion. Don't confuse the two words... they do not mean the same thing!

Have a Little Faith by Mitch Albom was the book that has kept me ‘reading’ through the past few days while commuting to work. It is the tale of Mitch’s discussions with two men of God – his own rabbi and an inner-city black pastor. Both men provide insights that nurture Mitch’s faith journey. In the final analysis Mitch comes to realize that everyone’s exploration of faith and the discussions of the meaning of life are the journey that leads us closer to God (or Allah or whatever we might call the Divine)… and that is what God wants for us: to explore, question, and bless all others with caring no matter what their religion or beliefs.
The audiobook is very ably narrated by the author. Two thumbs up!
