Rabbi Jeffrey Salkin says religion can offer people without faith a role in a “larger story.”
Salkin produces his award-winning blog, “Martini Judaism: for those who want to be shaken and stirred,” published by the Religion News Service, and has lectured to communities in North America, Cuba and Israel, to people of all ages and faith traditions. He serves as the senior rabbi of Temple Solel in Hollywood, Florida.
