Welcome
Welcome to "Shalom Rav," a collection of posts that have nothing much in common other than my desire to share them with you.
While some of my posts are related to my day job (I serve as Rabbi of Jewish Reconstructionist Congregation in Evanston, IL), the opinions I express here are mine alone and do not reflect official stands of my congregation or any organization with which I'm affiliated.
