How Good Do We Have to Be? A New Understanding of Guilt and Forgiveness
Kushner, best known for his best-selling When Bad Things Happen to Good People (1985), here deals with an equally vexing topic, overcoming shame and guilt. As in his other books, Rabbi Kushner turns to the Bible to find answers to hard questions, and when it comes to guilt and shame, there is no better place to start than at the beginning, with the story of Adam and Eve.
I found the book to offer a variety of interesting insights into the human condition and provided valuable perspective into our seemingly-ingrained feelings of guilt and the value of forgiveness.
Softcover, 192 pages.
