Rabbi Dr. Jeffrey Schein, the 2018 Wornom Innovation grant award winner, has recently published yet another powerful resource: Life-Long Spirituality and God Connection: A Suite of Kaplanesque Learning Resources.
The notion of life-long spirituality and God connection is clear enough to most colleagues. “Kaplanesque”, however, might need a brief explanation. Mordecai Kaplan was the founder of the Reconstructionist movement in Judaism. His profound conviction was that “trans-naturalism” deserved an equal platform as “super-naturalism” as a theological construct. Briefly put, we can discover God within us and around us as well as above us.
The learning resource is full of connections to a host of theorists and authors from our field.
