Knosh and Knowledge
Judaism Disrupted: A Spiritual Manifesto for the 21st Century
In his new book, Judaism Disrupted: A Spiritual Manifest for the 21st Century, Rabbi Michael Strassfeld illuminates the possibilities of a new Judaism—a framework, as he puts it, with “practices that you can start putting into use right away to live a life of meaning.”
By re-envisioning a Judaism that cultivates inner qualities such as gratitude, patience and generosity, Judaism Disrupted reshapes the tradition into something radically new. Focusing on the ethical imperative to make the world a better and more just place for all its inhabitants, this new Judaism calls on us to live with purpose. The wisdom found in the three-thousand-year discussion of how to live such a life can guide us on life’s journey. The practices, old and reconstructed—form a technology to make meaning in our lives and in our world.
Federation Knosh and Knowledge programs are held monthly and take place at Hevreh of Southern Berkshires.
Rabbi Michael Strassfeld has been prominent in the American Jewish community for nearly forty years, dating from his involvement as co-editor of the first Jewish Catalog in 1973 followed by many more publications. Rabbi Strassfeld is currently the Executive Director of the Jewish Counter-Culture Oral History Project.
