Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher. Someone older who understood you when you were young and searching, who helped you see the world as a more profound place, and gave you advice to help you make your way through it. For Mitch Albom, that person was Morrie Schwartz, his college professor from nearly twenty years ago.

Maybe, like Mitch, you lost track of your mentor as you made your way, and the insights faded, and the world seemed colder. Wouldn’t you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you?

Mitch Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man’s life. Knowing he was dying, Morrie visited with Mitch in his study every Tuesday, just as they used to back in college.

Tuesdays With Morrie

"Have a Little Faith is an absolute wonder-tender, transporting, and deeply moving, a profound meditation on kindling the light that struggles in billions of hearts. It is the answer to anyone who believed they'd never again read a book with the soul and grace of Tuesdays with Morrie." – Scott Turow

What if our beliefs were not what divided us, but what pulled us together?

In Have a Little Faith, Mitch Albom offers a beautifully written story of a remarkable eight-year journey between two worlds-two men, two faiths, two communities-that will inspire readers everywhere.

Albom's first nonfiction book since Tuesdays with Morrie, Have a Little Faith begins with an unusual request: an eighty-two-year-old rabbi from Albom's old hometown asks him to deliver his eulogy.

Feeling unworthy, Albom insists on understanding the man better, which throws him back into a world of faith he'd left years ago. Meanwhile, closer to his current home, Albom becomes involved with a Detroit pastor-a reformed drug dealer and convict-who preaches to the poor and homeless in a decaying church with a hole in its roof.

Moving between their worlds, Christian and Jewish, African-American and white, impoverished and well-to-do, Albom observes how these very different men employ faith similarly in fighting for survival: the older, suburban rabbi embracing it as death approaches; the younger, inner-city pastor relying on it to keep himself and his church afloat.

As America struggles with hard times and people turn more to their beliefs, Albom and the two men of God explore issues that perplex modern man: how to endure when difficult things happen; what heaven is; intermarriage; forgiveness; doubting God; and the importance of faith in trying times. Although the texts, prayers, and histories are different, Albom begins to recognize a striking unity between the two worlds-and indeed, between beliefs everywhere.

In the end, as the rabbi nears death and a harsh winter threatens the pastor's wobbly church, Albom sadly fulfills the rabbi's last request and writes the eulogy. And he finally understands what both men had been teaching all along: the profound comfort of believing in something bigger than yourself.

Have a Little Faith is a book about a life's purpose; about losing belief and finding it again; about the divine spark inside us all. It is one man's journey, but it is everyone's story.

Ten percent of the profits from this book will go to charity, including The Hole In The Roof Foundation, which helps refurbish places of worship that aid the homeless.

Martes con mi viejo profesor refleja todos los valores humanos a la perfección, encerrando en él una lección de vida para todos, ya que nos narra el testimonio de las repetidas visitas durante cada martes, entre Mitch Albom y su viejo profesor, Morrie Schwartz, al cual le han diagnosticado una terrible enfermedad terminal, la ELA. A través de estos encuentros llenos de conexión y complicidad ambos, alumno y maestro, intercambian ideas y reflexionan sobre la muerte, la familia, el perdón o el amor entre otros temas de la vida cotidiana, encerrando así una enseñanza subliminar fruto de un extraordinario testamento espiritual que nos ayudará a encontrarnos a nosotros mismos a la vez que nos instará a reflexionar sobre nuestra vida de la mano de un hombre que depende por completo de los demás, pero que luchará hasta el final con el mayor optimismo. Esta fabulosa obra está llena de sencillez, pero a la vez, cargada de emoción y vitalidad, es uno de esos relatos que hacen que te plantees la vida, de los que dejan huella, y de los que dificilmente se olvidan.

Mitch Albom, el autor de `Martes Con Mi Viejo Profesor`, vuelve para hacernos pensar, para hacernos sentir, y sobre todo para enamorarnos de nuevo de cada una de las palabras que componen su nueva novela: `Las Cinco Personas Que Encontraras en el Cielo`.

Eddie tiene 83 años y trabaja en el parque de atracciones de una pequeña ciudad de provincias norteamericana. Ha pasado toda su vida en este lugar, a excepción de su participación en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, un episodio que le marcó profundamente. Su vida acaba de forma trágica al salvar a una niña que está a punto de ser atropellada por un coche de la montaña rusa. Eddie se encuentra ahora… en el cielo. El paraíso aparece como el lugar donde, por fin, entendemos el sentido de nuestra vida en la tierra. Así, Eddie se encuentra con las cinco personas que más han influido en su vida, de forma directa pero también indirecta, sin que él se diera cuenta. Y así surgen dos preguntas capitales: ¿De qué manera nuestra vida está ligada a la de gente que no conocemos? ¿Cómo influyen nuestras decisiones en la vida de otras personas?
