The Beauty of What Remains

How Our Greatest Fear Becomes Our Greatest Gift

The national bestseller

From the author of the bestselling More Beautiful Than Before comes an inspiring book about loss based on his most popular sermon.

As the senior rabbi of one of the largest synagogues in the world, Steve Leder has learned over and over again the many ways death teaches us how to live and love more deeply by showing us not only what is gone but also the beauty of what remains.

This inspiring and comforting book takes us on a journey through the experience of loss that is fundamental to everyone. Yet even after having sat beside thousands of deathbeds, Steve Leder the rabbi was not fully prepared for the loss of his own father. It was only then that Steve Leder the son truly learned how loss makes life beautiful by giving it meaning and touching us with love that we had not felt before.

Enriched by Rabbi Leder's irreverence, vulnerability, and wicked sense of humor, this heartfelt narrative is filled with laughter and tears, the wisdom of millennia and modernity, and, most of all, an unfolding of the profound and simple truth that in loss we gain more than we ever imagined.

Profound

One of the most thought provoking life changing inspiring shares I've ever enjoyed. Thank you.

what a beautiful book. Such a comfort!

This is one of the most perfect books I have ever read. A must have for your library. Highly recommend.

Beautiful beyond my expectations

Listening to this book while driving through beautiful south eastern Utah including Monticello & Canyonlands caused me to reflect on this beautiful earth, relationships, and the life one wants to lead. While causing self reflection as well as remembering the good and bad of the life lead and the life to be lead i’m struck and determined to lead a better life.

No words

I watched an interview the author had with Hoda Kotb and something about their conversation made me want to read this. I am so thankful I did.

Beautiful

This book was exactly what I needed following the death of my father. It was beautifully written, and really helped me process some of my emotions. Honestly, I wish I’d read this while my dad was still alive - Rabbi Leder offers so much excellent advice for processing life, death, and the dying process. I am so grateful that this book exists.

Thank you Rabbi. Thank you Steve.

For powerfully and tenderly putting into words and action what it means to experience the death of a loved one. Having recently lost my own Dad, I have turned to Rabbi Leder's advice time and again, and I am not - technically - Jewish.

Beautiful words

Rabbi Leder provided me with a new perspective on such a difficult topic, and also insight on how to show up for those towards the end in a meaningful way. Thank you for this gift.

Very good insight

Dealing with my death from cancer is "eased" by listening to others God bless all who listen to this book

Soulful

Somber, aching and somehow joyous interpretations of the meanings of life, of death, and of humanity.

The narration of the author is impeccable.
