As a young adult, she immersed herself in the rhinestone-bedazzled wonderland of late 1990s San Francisco-drinking smuggled absinthe with wealthy geeks and plotting the revolution with feminist zinemakers. But she found herself yearning for something she would eventually call God.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSurprised by God\u003c\/i\u003e is a memoir of a young woman's spiritual awakening and eventual path to the rabbinate, a story of integrating life on the edge of the twenty-first century into the discipline of traditional Judaism, without sacrificing either. It's also an unflinchingly honest guide to the kind of work that goes into developing a spiritual practice-and it shows why, perhaps, doing this in today's world requires more effort than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRabbi Danya Ruttenberg\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eSuprised by God: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Religion\u003c\/i\u003e and 2016 National Jewish Book Award finalist \u003ci\u003eNurture the Now: Finding Spirituality in the Frustration, Boredom, Tears, Poop, Desperation, Wonder, and Radical Amazement of Parenting\u003c\/i\u003e and editor of several books including \u003ci\u003eYentl's Revenge: The Next Wave of Jewish Feminism.\u003c\/i\u003e She has been published in a wide variety of books and periodicals, including \u003ci\u003eEncyclopedia Judaica\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBest Jewish Writing 2002\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eSan Francisco Chronicle\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSalon\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBitchfest\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Women's Movement Today: An Encyclopedia of Third-Wave Feminism\u003c\/i\u003e.
