Reviews
"Funny, honest and passionate ... a provocative, intriguing and always interesting exploration of Jewish theology that will grab you from the first page. God-wrestlers, this book is for you!" --Dr. Ron Wolfson, co-president, Synagogue 3000; author, God's To-Do List: 103 Ways to Be an Angel and Do God's Work on Earth "Clear, accessible ... will serve as a safe entry point into serious conversations about Jewish theology and spirituality for a new generation." --Rabbi Daniel Freelander, senior vice president, Union for Reform Judaism "Courageous! Grapples with religion with such honesty, wisdom and humor." --Harold Grinspoon, founder, Harold Grinspoon Foundation "Offers a way into Judaism that doesn't require adherence to a stale and rigid theology. [A] powerful and compelling articulation of Judaism." --Rabbi Sharon Brous, founder, IKAR "Offers terrific examples of how creative and innovative Jewish educators can link millennia-old traditions with the natural world to inspire young Jews to chart their own course through our rich heritage." --Lynn Schusterman, Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation "Provides all of us--primarily parents and teachers--with a thoroughly accessible resource for introducing a younger generation into the riches of Jewish theology. Particularly unconventional and noteworthy is the author's use of nature as another revealed 'text,' parallel to Torah and the synagogue, where God can be experienced." --Rabbi Neil Gillman, PhD, emeritus professor of Jewish philosophy, The Jewish Theological Seminary; author, Doing Jewish Theology: God, Torah & Israel in Modern Judaism, "Funny, honest and passionate ... a provocative, intriguing and always interesting exploration of Jewish theology that will grab you from the first page.
