Abstract

Embark on a journey of self-discovery and explore the spiritual path with “How To Be Jewish in 30 Seconds” . These are the words and wisdom of Rabbi Kenneth B. Block, YouTube’s most influential Rabbi. 
To be Jewish you just “do”. Each chapter is a thing you can do. Jews are born. Jews are made. Jews share beliefs and practices. And Jews don’t judge others about their Jewishness. It’s about desire and intention not perfection. 
 

 


 

Comments
You are not required to follow a complicated set of rules, regulations, rituals, and dogmas to be Jewish. You need to do something from Judaism's 5,000 year history, and there are plenty of "somethings" that you can do that will remind you that you are Jewish. This easy to read book, interspersed with cartoons and illustrations, describes how to follow the spirit of Judaism and avoid the intimidation of cumbersome rules and practices.



"The Rabbi and I" YouTube channel was the inspiration for this book. The "I", Joe Sutliff. realized that the emphasis on observing rituals in a specific way was driving people away from being Jewish. His questions to Rabbi Block became 36 chapters of practical advice on "How to be Jewish in 30 Seconds". Rabbi Block's 40 year experience as a Chaplain in a psychiatric hospital, Rabbi of several part time congregations, being a Chaplain for the Bel Air Volunteer Fire Company, The American Cancer Society, and a hospice chaplain make his advice for "How to be Jewish" practical, realistic, and Jewish.
