Have you met Yedidya yet?

Yedidya Steinhart is a young yeshiva bachur striving to overcome his challenging past and build a new life in the vibrant world of an elite Jerusalem yeshiva. Determined to escape the shadows of a tough childhood in New York, Yedidya dreams of living a life full of purpose, faith, and growth. 

But life has other plans. First, he experiences an unexpected nevuah ketanah, a “small prophecy” as described in the Talmud, a divine revelation that shakes him to his core. Then, an unjust accusation plunges him into a nightmare, altering the course of his life forever. 

As Yedidya’s journey of resilience and self-discovery unfolds, he finds guidance in the most unlikely of places—new friends, mentors, and the simple, profound teachings of Torah that offer him hope and perspective. Through his struggles, he uncovers valuable lessons about faith, happiness, and the true meaning of strength. 

Yedidya is more than a novel; it is a story of transformation, of rising above adversity, and of learning to trust in Hashem even when life seems darkest. Inspired by Rabbi Travis' Torah series "Thanking Hashem when Things Look Bad," this book inspires readers to find light even in the most challenging of times.
