Mudhouse Sabbath by Lauren F. Winner

Ms. Winner grew up Jewish but later converted to the Episcopal Church. This little book (published by Paraclete Press in Brewster, MA) embraces both traditions. While fully committed to her new religion, the author reveres her Jewish background and points out how Orthodox Judaism brings awareness of God to daily life much more than Christianity does. Ms. Winner has been an excellent speaker at Episcopal churches explaining the potental of Jewish practices to enhance Christian life.
