Stories That Awaken the Heart is a wonderful collection of stories that will do just that - awaken our hearts and rejuvenate our spirits. In these pages we meet all kinds of people facing many different challenges - wake-up calls for their own Jewish hearts. A combat soldier facing imminent death, a gas station attendant with a grudge that threatens a youngster's life, a deep-sea diver lost beneath the ocean with only four minutes of oxygen left - each of the dozens of memorable characters in these true stories has a moment when he can choose to hear Hashem's call.

Like all good stories, these tales are entertaining and inspiring. But more: with Rabbi Pruzansky's sensitive understanding of human nature and the Torah insights that mark his every word, these are stories that can transform us. And awaken our sleepy hearts.
