Hidden Inheritance by Heidi B Neumark

Hidden Inheritance by Heidi B Neumark

Heidi Neumark's life changed forever when her daughter's late-night online searching exposed a generation of family secrets. From a few computer keystrokes, Neumark discovered her hidden Jewish heritage--and uncovered hundreds of questions: Did her grandfather really die in a concentration camp? How
did she never know her grandmother was a death-camp survivor? Why had
the family history and faith been rejected and hidden?

Heidi's search for the truth quickly became more than a personal
journey; it also became spiritual. It caused profound ponderings on her
thirty-year vocation as a Lutheran pastor. It was a shocking revelation
that her Jewish roots and successive family loss and trauma now suddenly
and inherently connected her to the multi-ethnic, marginalized
community she had been ministering to for three decades.

Hidden Inheritance takes the reader on a journey that
seamlessly weaves personal narrative, social history, and biblical
reflection to challenge readers to explore their own identity, vocation,
and theology. Neumark boldly calls readers to explore the harsh places
of the past, uncover the possible buried secrets, ask new questions,
forge new understanding, and discover new hope for transformation that
is only possible when what has been hidden is finally brought to light.
