Putting God Second: How to Save Religion from Itself
In his latest book, Putting God Second, Rabbi Dr. Donniel Hartman tackles one of modern life's most urgent and vexing questions:
Why are the great monotheistic faiths - Judaism, Christianity, and Islam - chronically unable to fulfill their own self-professed goal of creating individuals infused with moral sensitivity and societies governed by the highest ethical standards?
Join us for a book talk and conversation between Rabbi Dr. Donniel Hartman, president of the Shalom Hartman Institute and TBD.
