Daily Wisdom, an anthology of 378 daily inspirational lessons culled from the vast and deep Torah teachings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe was the gold winner in the religion category of the prestigious 2015 Benjamin Franklin Awards.
The book is published by Kehot Publication Society.
Administered by the Independent Book Publishers Association, the award is widely regarded as one of the highest national honors for publishers in the United States.
The lessons in Daily Wisdom are apportioned according to the day-to-day study cycle of the Torah, covering another section of the weekly Torah reading. The teachings were rendered into English and adapted by Rabbi Moshe Wisnefsky.
The book was produced by Chabad House Publications of California and published by Kehot in July of 2014. Following the book’s initial success, it was recently republished in a compact format as the Asher David Milstein Edition.
“The Rebbe’s inspirational teachings are a relevant and living source of wisdom and comfort to people of every walk of life,” noted Rabbi Chaim Nochum Cunin, director of Chabad House Publications.
“Daily Wisdom is a vehicle through which thousands of people are now being personally impacted by these teachings. We are honored that this important contribution was recognized by the Independent Book Publishers Association.”

it’s a fantastic book
gives the non Yiddishers a chance to see the Rebbes
brilliance in the Sichos
it took a lot of hard work to compile as can probably be
determined from the sources cited for each daily
lesson and in the ability to condense the point of a Sicho
cannot wait for a sequel
WOWEEE!!! THIS IS SO GREAT AND WELL DESERVED. THE BOOK IS A BEACON OF LIGHT SURE TO BRING MOSHIACH NOW! YASHER KOACH TO CHAIM AND MOSHE AND ALL INVOLVED FOR MAKING OUR REBBE’S WISDOM SO EASILY AVAILABLE TO ALL MANKIND!
Thank you.

How many times has this question come up?
Which book should I get? Everyone is familiar with this challenge. We are constantly coming in contact with people who have very little exposure to Chabad. What books should we reccomend?
Toward a meaningful life? Sure. Think Jewish? Amazing but needs a bit of an update. Three new books on the Rebbe? Ok.
I would highly advise this book for two reasons.
1. It’s well written and designed.
2. People today want something short and quick. This is an “entry” book to whet people’s appetite for more Torah and chassidus.

I don’t know who is responsible for this book, whoever it is you should be blessed.
I discovered it in NY. Absolute gems in this book. Actually turned me on to the Chumash as well.
