Shechinah, Bring Me Home!

“Rabbi Laura makes me want to love the local, overlooked creatures, theology with question marks, my difficult neighbor, and even myself better. I rejoice to recommend a book so human as this.”


—Jason Byassee, Vancouver School of Theology





“Respected teacher and scholar Rabbi Laura Duhan-Kaplan shares with us a vulnerable and heartfelt exploration of counting the forty-nine days of the Omer between Pesach and Shavuot. The book is compelling, surprising, informative, and uplifting.”


—Hanna Tiferet Siegel, rabbi and Eshet Hazon (Woman of Vision)





“Bringing depth and freshness to centuries-old spiritual practice, Rabbi Laura has written a very readable and engaging contribution to the growing genre of Omer period guidebooks (though also beneficial year-round). Her command of so many disciplines and her consummate ability to teach renders the seemingly complicated relatable and relevant. The brilliant and instructive contemplations in this book can help open your mind and heart to the Shechinah.”
