  8. Jewish Ethics, #MeToo, and Crowd-Sourced Responsa

  9. Seth Rosen Aug 6

    In the last several weeks, two experiences, both of them ongoing, have made clear to me the power and persistency of “gathering” as a lynchpin of building and sustaining a spiritual community within the Reconstructionist movement.
