Spiritual Vagabondry by Rabbi Jeremy Gordon
For ten years, from one of the most prestigious pulpits in British Jewry, Rabbi Jeremy Gordon has been in search of the possibilities of living a religious life in an increasingly irreligious society. In this absorbing and honest book he writes on topics as varied as Israel, love & quantum physics and reflects on his own journey as a spiritual leader and father. It will challenge, move and inspire. Spiritual Vagabondary contains a selection of articles, lectures, sermons and other works drawn from ten years in the congregational rabbinate, grouped around a number of fields; Israel, Love, History, Science, Theology and Jewish Law. It also contains reflections on Rabbi Gordon's career, being a parent and a chapter on the founding Rabbi of the Synagogue he now serves, New London Synagogue - a community created out of the greatest controversy in Anglo-Jewish history - the Jacobs Affair.
Jeremy Gordon is Rabbi of New London Synagogue. He has a first class honours degree in Law from Cambridge and, following five years working for the BBC and other television companies decided to train for the Rabbinate. He studied at the Conservative Yeshiva in Jerusalem and the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York, where he volunteered with the Red Cross at Ground Zero on '9/11.' He's worked with a broad range of charities and pressure groups including the American Jewish World Service and the, at the time nascent, Jewish community centre in London - JW3. He's a contributor to Radio 2's Pause for Thought slot and has frequently written for the Jewish Chronicle, Conservative Judaism and other publications.
