Books by Terry Bookman

From expulsions, exiles, and even genocide, for the past two millennia the Jewish people have become expert survivors. Author Terry Bookman discusses the challenges today's postmodern Jewish community faces and the ways in which it must develop a new agenda to change from merely surviving to thriving.

Taking up synagogues as its primary example, this book gives vital lessons for congregations of any faith on how to be a healthy community of believers. The House We Build enables readers to learn more deeply about creating and sustaining communities of faith in the course of inevitable transitions and everyday challenges.
