Beschreibungen
<p><span>What could be more ingrained in the Jewish psyche as well as pop culture everywhere than the B’nei Mitzvah ceremony? </span></p>
<p><span>For generations, families have joined synagogues and schlepped their kids to lessons. These hapless pre-teens struggle with cracking voices and unfamiliar melodies, fight with their parents about time spent practicing, and eventually face a couple hundred of their closest friends and relatives to sing for a couple hours in a foreign language. The current model of B’nei Mitzvah training does not resonate with most 13-year-old kids. They do it because they know they have to do it. Their parents and grandparents went through the same thing. </span></p>
<p><span>It’s time to re-evaluate how our kids learn and prepare to be knowledgeable and engaged members of the Jewish community. </span><span>Raising the Bar Mitzvah</span><span> is the book that will lead Jewish professionals as well as lay congregants on a more productive and meaningful path.</span></p>
