Book Description
What we do in shul is central to our avodas Hashem. It also shapes and develops our hearts and minds to become closer to Him, and better to our fellow man. In our days, the level of respect shown in synagogues is sometimes not quite what it should be.
Right on Time brings together Torah sources, Jewish philosophy, and practical suggestions to help us elevate our conduct with regard to tefillah, learning, and other communal activities.
Shuls and batei midrash will benefit from having this short sefer readily available.
Each of us will benefit from its words of chizuk and practical advice.
This original work will help improve our punctuality and behavior for davening, Torah learning – and our lives in the community.
This book includes some cartoon illustrations by Menachem Jerenberg.
