Reasonable, spiritual, authentic Judaism
Exploring a reasonable and relevant Judaism - authentic and current, inclusive and welcoming - Rabbi Jonathan opens and develops discussions delving into Jewish life, learning, and meaning. “Jewish and...” means Judaism enhanced because today's Judaism is: multi-faith, multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, pluralist, pro-LGBTQ+, feminist, and multi-generational. “Jewish and…” starts with Jewish sources: Torah, Midrash, Talmud, Commentaries, Israel, Yiddish, Hebrew, Food, Klezmer, and anything else that connects us to our Jewish selves.
On the road from Tahoe to Charlotte, NC, our soon to be new home, and the Torah reading cycle is in Numbers, BeMidbar, "in the Wilderness". All transitions include a move through a place in between - traveling the deserts of Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico seems like an appropriate start for our next journey. Deserts can feel like places of transition.
