Confronting Critical Issues Facing a Maturing Movement
Dan Cohn-Sherbok, General Editor
Here is a collection of substantive articles compiled to focus discussion on some weighty matters facing the Messianic Jewish movement. Reform rabbi, Dr. Dan Cohn-Sherbok, though not a Messianic Jew, is a friend of the movement. He believes that Messianic Judaism may be considered a branch of Judaism in this century. Professor of Judaism at the University of Wales, author of over 30 books, Rabbi Cohn-Sherbok guided the selection of topics addressed in this book. Here are some examples:
- Should Jewish believers in Messiah attend only Messianic Jewish congregations?
- Is intermarriage acceptable for Messianic Jews?
- Should liturgy have an essential role in congregational worship?
- How should outreach be accomplished?
Many of the best minds impacting this movement have contributed their thoughts to this book, creating a lively, informative, discussion. Each author, expressing his or her own view on a topic (often in direct opposition to another author), is a voice that can help this maturing movement confront the critical issues facing it. 256 pages.
