Beskrivelse

An indispensable resource for everyone who cares about the Jewish future.

"Every passage of Torah has the potential to be someone's personal story and teaching--and that definitely includes you as a teenager. If you read these stories, and if you really let these holy texts into your mind and into your soul, your life will be deeper and richer, and even happier."

--from the Introduction

Young people need to be included in the struggle for meaning, for the right questions to ask and the search for useful and relevant answers. This is the book that has been missing from the ever-expanding bookshelf of Torah commentaries--a collection of messages on each Torah portion, specifically for today's teens. It shows them how each Torah portion contains worlds of meaning for them, for what they are going through in their lives, and how they can shape their Jewish identity as they enter adulthood.

Addressing the concerns of young adults, it shows how the Torah can help teens deal with issues including:

Interpersonal relationshipsSocial justiceSexuality and gender issuesPersonal ethicsResponsibility to familyCommunity and the Jewish peopleBody imageTattoosCommunity serviceThe meaning of faithAuthority and rebellionThe role of ritualPersonal theologyPrayerCivilityLiving safelyDealing with disabilitiesChallenges of eating morallyThis groundbreaking spiritual resource is truly transdenominational--including the insights of over 100 Jews who identify as Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, Reconstructionist, Renewal, post-denominational and "just Jewish." They are rabbis, cantors, educators, authors and community leaders. Orthodox, Reconstructionist, Renewal, post-denominational and "just Jewish."
