S3K Leadership Network member Rabbi Ed Feinstein, interviewed in The Jewish Journal Of Greater Los Angeles:

The Journal’s Amy Klein: : You gave a sermon on Yom Kippur outlining your vision for the synagogue. Can you sum it up?

Rabbi Ed Feinstein: America gives us many gifts: freedom, security, hope. But there"re two huge holes in American culture. One, it"s very individualistic, and therefore lonely. And two, American culture doesn"t provide a sense of the purpose for living. And these happen to be the two things that Judaism does best. It connects us with each other into community. And it reminds us that we live for each other and with each other and provides a sense of purposeful living.
