With Truth and With Love
Truth and love are the twin foundations upon which all Yiddishkeit rests. There is only one truth — the truth of the Creator as He reveals Himself to us. And there is only one love — the love for the Creator as He reveals Himself to us. Our love for our fellow Jew, our child or our spouse is really a love for the Divine image they bear. This is the fundamental insight upon which this sefer is based. With Truth and with Love is an expanded English edition of the much acclaimed Eitzos veHadrachos (Part 2). Each of its seventeen shiurim consists of two parts: the first is a discussion of the principles behind a profound Torah concept, while the second part offers a number of strategies for incorporating it into our lives and bringing it out in the education of our children.
Some of the topics covered are:
• Emes and emunah
• Self-confidence and self-esteem
• The true meaning of modesty
• Service of the heart
• Maintaining our peace of mind
• Balancing our middos
Absorbing the principles of this sefer will enable you to achieve true shleimus — peace with others, with yourself and with Hashem.

- With Truth and Love is an outstanding guidebook and manual for improving one’s life in various waysWith Truth and Love is an outstanding guidebook and manual for improving one’s life in various ways. Some of the topics include: Chinuch (this chapter –a topic affecting virtually every Torah family today- was extraordinarily impressive), Emunah, Self-Confidence, Punishment, Tznius, Thought, Self-respect and more. One can see rather quickly how every chapter is lovingly written in a manner of arousing "devarim hayotzim min halev….nichnasim l’lev.”
Each of the 17 chapters chapter is made up of two sections: “The Principles” and the “The Practical.” The Principles section is a beautiful weave of Torah sources relating to the subject matter from the Torah and Talmud to rabbinic literature of every era. The Practical section then builds on the principles and offers practical strategies for incorporating the subject -and change- into our lives.
The book is written in an extremely clear and delicate manner. This is not just another book of advice and ideas...it may very well be *the* book for advice and ideas on these matters. Everyone will relate to this book and find it useful: parents, teachers, and rabbis. Highly recommendedPosted on
- Deep, Thought Provoking, and Inspiring WorkThe book helped me very much with my connection to haShem, as well as helping connect to my spouse and children on a new level. With deep ideas and practical applications after every chapter the book is able to be read and understood by everyone. Thank You to Rav Greenwald Zt"l for allowing his wisdom and advice be readily available to the English reading audience.

Many different topics relative to every person. Aside for the amazing Torah that is brought down here and explained in a very understandable way for every person on their level, there is also the practical applications of everything discussed to help us change and become better people as well as in regards to education whether your child or student. The Hebrew edition was amazing and this is even better!
