SUMMARY:From Boston to Southern California: Journey Towards Our Future
DESCRIPTION:From Boston to Southern California: Journey Towards Our Future \n\n2013 Convention Committee\n \nReception\nsponsored by IsramWorld\nThe simple act of conversation can be transformational when people speak their authentic truth\, listen deeply\, make space for reflection\, and allow what is being said to touch their minds and hearts. And in a world where speed\, multi-tasking\, and declarations from experts seem to dominate\, this kind of conversation is quickly becoming the exception rather than the rule. Join your colleagues for a dynamic and interactive session in which you will have a chance to sit with colleagues and explore the question\, “What is it you have a hunger to learn\, experience\, experiment with or accomplish in the coming 5-10 years that would add impact and meaning to your rabbinate and inspiration to your Jewish journey?.” The session will demonstrate specific small and large group methods designed to connect people in meaningful conversations. The insights generated from this session will be used to shape the program for the 2013 Convention.

SUMMARY:Theology as Personal Story: A Rabbi’s Reflections
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Arthur Green\nJudaism since its beginning has been a narrative tradition. We love to tell stories. The most native form of Jewish theologizing is narrative: re-telling the old story in some new and expansive way.\nBut theology is also a highly personal undertaking. At its most honest\, it is an account of one’s own journey through life\, re-told through the language of tradition\, thus enriching both the personal and the collective stories. Here is one man’s attempt to do so. \nDownload: Text Sheet \nKeter Torah: 1.5 hours
