SUMMARY:Scriptural Reasoning: "Marriage"
DESCRIPTION:Rumi Forum had its monthly circle on January 12\, 2023\, to study Abrahamic scriptures on the topic of “Marriage” with our study leader\, Rabbi David Greenspoon\, from Jewtique Concierge Rabbinic Services. \nScriptural Reasoning (SR) allows Christians\, Jews\, and Muslims to study each other’s sacred texts. SR participants meet monthly to read short passages from their respective scriptures on a certain topic. Facilitated by a study leader\, each session is an opportunity to listen and share various perspectives. SR sessions help participants reflect on a curious list of topics within the Abrahamic tradition. The result is often a deeper understanding of others and one’s own scriptures\, as well as the development of strong bonds across faith communities. \n               Scriptural Reasoning: Introduction                              Islamic Scripture: Quran \n                 \n               Christian Scripture: New Testament                        Jewish Scripture: Hebrew Bible \n                  \n This Month`s Study Leader \n \nRabbi David Greenspoon is a rarity among clergy: he’s a veteran of the United States Navy—twice. 1981-1985\, he was enlisted and deployed on a guided missile cruiser and an aircraft carrier. In 1989\, he was appointed an officer in the United States Navy Reserve and was a chaplain until 1996. These experiences lead Rabbi Greenspoon to ground his rabbinic work in relationships; he understands his rabbinate is a “rabbinate of presence.” His approach to servant leadership\, in particular\, has resulted in numerous awards for the congregations he served and has been transformative for congregations and communities\, especially in the realms of interfaith work and civic engagement. \nRabbi Greenspoon has held numerous leadership positions within and beyond the Jewish community. In 2021\, he was awarded a Doctor of Divinity\, honoris causa\, by the Jewish Theological Seminary for his 25+ years of service to the Jewish community. Always learning and growing\, Rabbi Greenspoon is undertaking specialized training for credentials in healthcare chaplaincy while growing his recently launched business\, Jewtique Concierge Rabbinic Services.
