About the Book
THE GOD I BELIEVE IN, far from textbook theology, is a lively portrait of contemporary Jewish beliefs by 14 leading Jewish philosophers, writers and rabbis in conversation with Joshua Haberman. It is a stimulating mini-course on contemporary, post-holocaust Judaism. In these probing conversations Haberman skillfully poses the sort of questions we ourselves might ask: Do you believe in God? Have you ever had a “God-experience”? Do you believe God intervenes in our lives? Do you believe in the Messiah? Is there an after-life? Eliciting personal confessions and some surprising accounts of religious experience, these interviews of a distinguished group of thinkers provide deep insight into Jewish spirituality in our time."
