"Living a Jewish Life presents Judasim as a blueprint for living mindfully and honorably in the here and now. This new edition extends the reach of the classic guide, which has been a favorite among Jewish educators and students for years. Enriched with new resources, including ways to connect and learn online, this updated guide reflects many of the profound and subtle changes that both challenge and enrich the Jewish community today. Addressing the choices and challenges of the twenty-first-century world, Living a Jewish Life is a welcoming doorway into meaningful Jewish tradition and belief, exploring the spectrum of liberal Jewish thought, practice, and expression: Conservative, Reconstructionist, Reform, unaffiliated, cultural, and secular. Celebrating the diversity of Jewish beliefs, the book presents a wealth of information that allows readers to make informed choices as they bring Judasim into their lives"--Back cover.
