{"product_id":"9781580236577","title":"Finding a Spiritual Home: How a New Generation of Jews Can Transform the American Synagogue","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Jewish community has lost some of the                 most sensitive spiritual souls of this generation. They are                 Jews who were looking for God and found spiritual homes outside                 of Judaism. Their journeys traversed the Jewish community, but                 nothing there beckoned them. The creation of                 synagogue-communities in which the voices of seekers can be                 heard and their questions can be asked will challenge many                 loyalist Jews. It will upset and enrage them. But it would also                 enrich them. \u003cbr\u003e—from Chapter 18 \u003c\/p\u003e            \u003cp\u003eIn this fresh look at the spiritual                 possibilities of American Jewish life, Rabbi Sidney Schwarz                 presents the framework for a new synagogue model—the                 synagogue community—and its promise to transform our                 understanding of the synagogue and its potential for modern                 Judaism.  \u003c\/p\u003e            \u003cp\u003eSchwarz profiles four innovative                 synagogues—one from each of the major movements of                 Judaism—that have had extraordinary success with their                 approach to congregational life and presents practical ways to                 replicate their success. \u003c\/p\u003e            \u003cp\u003eIncludes a discussion guide for study                 groups and book clubs as well as a new afterword by the author                 describing developments in synagogue change projects since the                 book was first published. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turner Publishing Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47112254488816,"sku":"9781580236577","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781580236577_p0.jpg?v=1763801416","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781580236577","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
