The Jewish Education Project

If you’re in a Jewish leadership role, don’t miss this pertinent conversation between David Bryfman and Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove, a prominent Jewish leader and author.  

Drawing on insights from Rabbi Cosgrove’s new book, For Such a Time as This: On Being Jewish Today, they delve into relevant topics, like: 

  • The generational divides within the Jewish community, as younger generations grapple with complex issues surrounding Israel and antisemitism.
  • A vision for Jewish education that balances empathy with protection of Jewish concerns.
  • How to navigate these challenges in a post-October 7th world. 

As the news is seemingly changing by the day, Rabbi Cosgrove offers guidance to fellow educators while exploring leadership, identity, and the role of Jewish educators in shaping the future.
