Who am I and where do I come to write this book? I feel it necessary to address all aspects of motherhood, so I decided to include both the sweetness and delight plus the shadow side of motherhood in this book. Some challenging life situations occur that are vital for us to consider, so I am including some disquieting statistics. Because many women (and men) have refrained from checking within themselves or making an examination on emotional, mental, physical and spiritual planes about having children, hardships have been created, both personally and planetary.

Mix religion, personal preferences, countless guests, and raging hormones, and you have the makings for chaos. Secrets of a Bar Mitzvah Mom is a humorous review and self-help resource for Jewish and non-Jewish family and friends that provides a real-life glimpse into the bar mitzvah experience. Author Nancy Berk pairs her humor and psychological training to address the common social and parenting dilemmas related to bar and bat mitzvah preparation and party planning. From religious school carpools to the just-in-the-nick-of-time home renovation, this book will take you down the winding road of the bar mitzvah parent and provide you with tips and tactics for strategizing, organizing, and streamlining your overloaded life. Secrets of a Bar Mitzvah Mom will make you smile about adolescent indecision, party meal planning, tablecloth obsession, and the occasional need for airbrush photography. A concise and practical reference, it also illustrates that the bar mitzvah experiences of parents are often amazingly similar. (And for that we can enjoy a sigh of relief.)

Like Judaism itself, the ritual of the Bar and Bat Mitzvah has developed over time. As with all rituals, participants need to invest it with meaning if it is to move beyond mere performance. In a time when we seek to strengthen Jewish continuity and identity, the bar and bat mitzvah provide opportunities to create meaning in our children's lives. It is the moment when the Jewish community grows by one. A Spiritual Journey is at once a guide to the practical issues of becoming a bar or bat mitzvah and an exploration of the deeper emotional and spiritual elements, inviting young adults and their families to appreciate the ritual's inherent richness and beauty. B'nai mitzvah and their parents will benefit from this thoughtful examination of the ceremonies that lie at the heart of Jewish identity. A Spiritual Journey ensures that the ceremony sets Jewish young adults on a lifelong path toward wisdom, faith, justice, and peace.
