Audio of the Shofar being blown in a way that deeply touches the soul…
It’s not often that a book touches my soul deeply, but “God’s Prayer” by Dr Michael Kagan, did. Then I realised that he also wrote the Holistic Haggadah which I’ve been using for a mystical seder for several years.
Michael came to Melbourne and Sydney in August, 2014 during which time I interviewed him.
In this interview, Dr Michael Kagan talks about his interest in Interfaith Dialogue as well as how his book “God’s Prayer” came about.
