Mazel tov! This rabbi knows his stuff

From easy-going partygoer to the “Rabbi of Hearts”: David Kraus was a completely normal young man, when a violent attack on the Regensburg party scene left him bedridden for months nursing broken bones and shattered dreams for the future. However, today David Kraus sees this blow of fate as something fortunate - for it gave his life a new direction. In his books, he inspiringly recounts with disarming honesty and much humour how he found his faith and ultimately became a rabbi - and how life’s adversities can be changed into sources of happiness: Jewish worldly wisdom for everyone.
