PIKESVILLE, Md.

For the last five years, the Story Tour Blog has grown to over 300 short stories about faith. Many subscribers have requested that the stories be gathered together into a book. Author Rachmiel Tobesman reveals them in his publication, "Story Tour: The Journey Begins" (published by Xlibris).

A holy man once said, "I came to teach you Scriptures but you understood it not, therefore I will tell you stories." Spiritual storytelling always has an underlying purpose, which is to inspire people with faith and communicate wisdom and values. It has played an important role in most, if not all, spiritual traditions, religions and cultures. This book is filled with short stories of faith from the Story Tour blog. The stories have touched the hearts, minds and souls of people since the beginning of time. Gathered from many places throughout the world, Rabbi Tobesman's timeless tales delivers lessons and enjoyment while entertaining in the tradition of maggidim(storytelling rabbis" of old.

The very backdrop to the spiritual stories is attractive to its readers allowing one to peek into the beliefs, and lifestyles of a vanishing age of a faraway world and reminding them that the messages are eternal - just as strong today as they were yesterday. "Story Tour: The Journey Begins" will remind readers that through the daily struggles and traumas, there are always stories of faith that strengthen and reaffirm hope for a better world.
