Description

For the first time, Dr. Eugene B. 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 teachers 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.
