I wanted to share about a newly-released book written by my brother in law's brother, Chabad colleague, Rabbi Eli Schlanger HYD, who was murdered less than a year ago when terror struck the Chanukah celebration at Bondi Beach in Australia.
For years, Rabbi Schlanger served as a hospital chaplain, and it was in that capacity that he first met Nikki Goldstein, an Australian journalist experiencing a medical emergency. Their conversations turned to G-d, purpose, and how to live. In January 2025 they resolved to put those conversations to paper. Less than a year later, just as the manuscript was nearing completion, Rabbi Schlanger was murdered.
A book written to heal the world was left unfinished, its author brutally murdered.
Nikki was shattered. But with the blessings of Rabbi Schlanger’s devastated family, she resolved to finish what they had started, and this week that came to fruition.
You can now purchase Conversations with My Rabbi - today would be a perfect day: you can purchase from Amazon.
The book explores Judaism’s universal moral values that speak to all of humanity. Every page resonates with Chassidic wisdom and Rabbi Schlanger’s classic wit. Pick up a copy. Read it. Buy another one for a family member, a neighbor, a colleague or a friend.
Not just for Jewish readers, this book is for anyone searching for meaning, anyone drawn to an honest, human conversation about how to live well and how to live holier lives, individually and collectively.
Rabbi Schlanger believed, with all his soul, that we can make this world a better place. The conversations recorded in this book will, without a doubt, inspire us all to dedicate ourselves to his cause.
Nothing would have made him prouder.
Let's come together next Shabbat and share highlights from this special book.
Shabbat Shalom!
