Read our newly published book online:
"The Vision of Isaiah", written by Torah
Atlanta's Director, Rick Halpern.
From the Introduction:
"My purpose in writing this book is to reach
out to those Jews who are seeking
inspiration. There is a “Truth”, and there is
meaning and spiritual passion within our
heritage. Twenty seven hundred years
ago, the prophet Isaiah wrote of the
mission and destiny of the Jewish people
unlike anyone else. As intimately as the
Psalms of David grasp the relationship
between man and G-d, the words of Isaiah
capture the sublime spirit of our
Redemption....."

At some point every Jew will
encounter missionaries, whether
in person or through their
literature. Rick Halpern's
"Choose Life" is a
Counter-Missionary study guide
written to help give Jews clarity on
this subject. Written in a simple,
clear-cut format, this book should
be a part of every Jew's library.
