166: Unabridged Interview: Shai Held
Manage episode 431449560 series 2687298
This is our unabridged interview with Rabbi Shai Held.
“I think part of what it means to live in an honest way with a religious tradition is to live with its ragged edges.”
It’s not unusual to assume that one of religion's prime functions is to give us answers. But what if some of life’s hardest questions weren’t meant to be answered, but rather perpetually asked?
In this episode, Rabbi Shai Held, author of the book, "Judaism is About Love: Recovering the Heart of Jewish Life,” exemplifies this possibility, engaging the messiness and joy of life with honest grappling. He argues that some Jews have internalized traditional anti-Jewish bias and he seeks to help recover what has been lost. He shows that love and grace are at the center of a good life.
