Legacy & Future Watch
Quote
“ I really hope that Liberal Judaism can take the best of its history and the best of what we see in our sister movements, like the Reform movement, and keep those things and I think one of the things we can really learn about is innovation in worship and in not getting bogged down with who we used to be. I guess one of the things that I’ve always hoped for, for Liberal Judaism, is that it embraces change and I get really worried if someone says well, Liberal Judaism is this, and it’s any definition that cannot move. I really want it to be the movement that moves and the movement that changes. “

“ One thing which is really stands out for me in terms of Liberal Judaism, and this carries across into LJY Netzer events as well is how there’s a big focus on the individual and try to find what’s right for you and giving you a say whether it’s the text study or whether it’s learning Bible connection, to Israel learning about conflicts or all different facets of Judaism. They allow you to explore our values in such incredible ways, allow us to constantly challenge and look at ourselves in terms of where we are in the 21st century. “
