Sabbath Salons
So, a little while back I talked about doing Sabbath Salons. I’ve re-thought the idea, since so many of the people who expressed interest are spread far and wide.
Here’s the new plan.
We choose a book. Each Shabbat, we all read the same chapter and then post our thoughts on the chapter. The idea came to me because I’ve been reading The River of Light, by Lawrence Kushner
On Sunday mornings, I’ll post my thoughts about the chapter we’ve read — hopefully a few of you will join in during the week and add your thoughts, too.
I’d love to start with this book, and I’m happy to re-read it. Let’s start October 7th, right in the middle of the days of awe. That should give everyone time to get a copy of the book. It’s not a very long book, so I’d also love suggestions for what we should read next!
Mini Manifesto:
Culture: I am fascinated by both culture on most levels. I mostly focus on American culture and what makes us who we are as a country, but I'm also intrigued by sub-cultures in the USA and the growing global cultural trends.
Technology: Technology is one of the strongest drivers of cultural and even spiritual changes in the last 100 years, and possibly the next 100.
