Nechama Leapley: How an Amish Girl Found Her Way to Orthodox Judaism

From Amish to Jewish??? Yes. You read that right. Briana Leapley, now Nechama Leapley, shares her inspiring journey from Amish life in rural Kentucky to becoming an Orthodox Jewish convert in Brooklyn. Leaving behind her family and traditions, she navigates intense culture shock, finds guidance from rabbis, and embraces a life of Torah and mitzvot. Her story is one of faith, courage, and transformation, moving from Amish simplicity to Jewish identity, and from Briana to Nechama, with her heart set on Israel.

► The Rumspringa Kallah: A Wild Twist in Jewish Fiction

A Chasidic scholar with a complicated halachic past sets off on a startling quest to find a convert bride among the Amish. It is a gripping, dramatic story that blends suspense, sharp dialogue, and deep Torah ideas. I actually mentioned this book to Nechama, the former Amish girl I interviewed, and a copy is already on its way to her.

The novel pulls you in with its mix of humor, intensity, and rich theological debate. It also includes powerful anti missionary arguments that unfold through bold conversations. In plain language: it is riveting, nail biting, and impossible to put down.
