The Rabbi’s Books That Are Friendly to a Religious Believer
Question
I know the Rabbi hates questions like this, but I wanted to know which of the Rabbi’s books can be given to a young man who is now beginning his search for faith, in a way that won’t ruin his faith. Of course I’m not in favor of hiding information, but it has to be done in stages. I’d appreciate a response.
Answer
I don’t know and can’t answer in general terms. Who is he? What troubles him? What are his inclinations/talents?

That’s the smallest lie of them all 🙂
