520    "From one of our country's most prominent rabbis, an 
       inspiring book about the power of community based on one 
       of her most impactful sermons. In 2013, Rabbi Sharon Brous
       gave a sermon in which she preached the need--in an era 
       riven by loneliness, social alienation, polarization, and 
       ideological extremism--to reclaim the simple act of 
       showing up for one another. That day marked the beginning 
       of an essential change in the community. Based on that 
       original sermon, The Amen Effect dives into our 
       fundamental human longing for connection--in our most 
       intimate relationships, in our community, with strangers, 
       perhaps with God. Faith and ritual are powerful vehicles 
       for this kind of connection, but so is simply reaching out,
       showing up, being present when others need us most. These 
       are the ways that we reawaken to one another's humanity, 
       and to our own. Brous argues that connection and kinship 
       in times of sorrow and celebration not only give our lives
       meaning, but can help us establish the foundation for a 
       more just and loving society. Drawn from ancient Jewish 
       wisdom, contemporary social science, and Rabbi Brous's 
       twenty years of pastoring to a leading-edge faith 
       community, The Amen Effect argues that human connection is
       the very heart of life itself, and has the power to 
       transform the way we think, feel, and live"--|cProvided by
