Summary
Congregation Kol Ami
Dear Kol Ami Community,
I am excited to announce the release of my newest book Seven Principles for Living Bravely now available on Amazon! This book is the result of a collaboration with my dear friend and colleague Rev. Neil G. Thomas, who many of you know. Through the difficult years of the pandemic and the many changes our society endured that affected so many lives along the way, we always had one another to lean on for professional help as we struggled to lead our two congregations through one of the most frightening events in history. As we comforted one another during those difficult times, we were inspired by what we were learning from one another’s faith traditions and decided that many more people would benefit from our experience.
Seven Principles for Living Bravely brings together universal truths of faith and wisdom that we have learned and taught in the Jewish and Christian traditions that will help readers make sense of the season they find themselves in and become an indispensable resource for getting through difficult periods of life.
In the book we explore seven interfaith principles and practices – Mourning, Truth, Rest, Love, Prayer, Joy, and Hope – through our respective lenses to give readers the tools to weather life’s ups and downs, from trauma and pandemics to expectation and delight.
