One of the blogs I follow is Midlife Bat Mitzvah (by Ilana DeBare). And she’s just posted a fascinating interview with one of her rabbis — Andrea Berlin. In it she talks about how her relationship with God (which is both personal and transcendent) changes every day. She talks about the authority of the Holy Books of various faiths (“Judaism teaches that I am bound to Torah because my people accepted it. … Only the people who are part of the covenant need to adhere to it.”) She talks about prayer (and her personal sense of “waking with God” as she climbed Half Dome). She talks about cyber=Judaism (which she sees as an emerging and helpful supplement to congregational involvement). And she talks about her anger with God (“My tradition gives me the right to be very angry at God.”).
If I have whetted your appetite, you can find the whole interview here.
