Powerful, soul-strengthening musings from the leading theologian of
liberal Judaism.
"Too often, books on religion are written either primarily for the head
or for the heart--as if thinking people don't also feel intuitively, and
spiritual types never think much at all. Bosh! Here is our special mix
for you.... It is our hope that these pieces will serve as unique
windows into Judaism--in bite-size, sacred 'touches'."
--from the Introduction
For the first time, Dr. Eugene Borowitz, the "dean" of liberal Jewish
theologians, opens his heart as well as his mind as he talks about the
mix of faith and doubt, of knowing and not-knowing--the elements of
Jewish belief--in an easily accessible style.
In these pages, Borowitz shares with you his rich inner life, which
draws from both the rational and mystical Jewish thought that have
inspired two generations of rabbis, cantors, and educators, and will now
inspire you. With him, you will explore:
- Seeking the Sacred One
- Doing Holy Deeds
- Creating Sacred Community
- Reading Sacred Texts
- Thinking about Holiness
- Learning from Holy Thinkers
- and much, much more...
