God is Here: Reimagining the Divine by Toba Spitzer |March 2022).
Toba Spitzer's God Is Here is a transformative exploration of the idea of God, offering new paths to experiencing the realm of the sacred.
Most of us are hungry for a system of meaning to make sense of our lives, yet traditional religion too often leaves those seeking spiritual sustenance unsatisfied. Rabbi Toba Spitzer understands this problem firsthand
and knows that too often it is traditional ideas of the deity―he's too big, too impersonal, and too unbelievable―that get in the way. In God Is Here, Spitzer argues that whether we believe in God or fervently disbelieve, what we are actually disagreeing about is not God at all, but a metaphor of a Big Powerful Person that limits our understanding and our spiritual lives.

Change to first Sunday, December 7 so as not to conflict with Chanukah – Read Chapters 6 and 7
