S3K Leadership Network member Rabbi Ed Feinstein wrote the Torah commentary (Parashat Bo) in this week’s Jewish Journal Of Greater Los Angeles. He concludes:

Those who worry over the future of Jewry cite grim statistics of assimilation, alienation and disaffection of contemporary Jews. But our real problem is deeper than statistics can show - it is the loss of our shared story, the lack of a compelling narrative of Jewish life. Go back to your beginnings, Rashi bids us, and recollect your story. For the source of your collective life and faith is in your shared story.
