Working with Liturgy

Prayer Talk Audio

Joel Lurie Grishaver

Acclaimed Jewish Educator Joel Grishaver explains his approach to liturgy, using the Mi Chamocha as an example. He touches on the master narrative of slavery, how to let the liturgy direct our feeling and thinking rather than vice-versa, and Jewish liturgy as a theology of moments—particular kinds of experiences with God.

Joel Lurie Grishaver, a recipient of the Covenant Award, is the cofounder and the creative chairperson of Torah Aura Productions. He is the author of numerous books, including Shema Is For Real, 40 Things You Can Do to Save the Jewish People (Alef Design Group), and the Stories We Pray: Insights into the Inner-Work of Jewish Worship (Torah Aura Productions).
