"Through honesty, openness and erudition, Rabbi Artson teaches of a God who whispers 'grow' to each of us. A beautiful and soulful exploration."
-Rabbi David Wolpe, Sinai Temple, Los Angeles, California; author, Why Faith Matters
"Offers us a new way to see ourselves, our world and our God. We no longer have to choose between our faith and our intellect. What a joy and what a relief it is to be able to integrate these seeming disparities. This important work invites us into a relationship with a God who is dynamic and loving. This is a book that can heal our souls."
-Rabbi Naomi Levy, spiritual leader, Nashuva; author, Hope Will Find You, Talking to God, and To Begin Again
"Shows how Process Theology can give us the language and understanding to forge a moral and compelling Judaism for ourselves.... If you have wrestled with the presence of evil in the world and suffering in your private life-if you have struggled to find a belief in God that is scientifically tenable and an approach to Torah that is intellectually credible-then this book is for you. It will inspire and nurture your soul."
-Rabbi Irving "Yitz" Greenberg, founding president, the Jewish Life Network; author, The Jewish Way
"I wept for joy reading this book. So many of us are wounded by conventional vocabulary when we think and talk about God-our language is stuck, and we are stuck.

-Rabbi Tamar Elad-Appelbaum, founding rabbi, Zion: An Eretz Israeli Community in Jerusalem

I plan to use this book again and again in the classroom, sharing it with people of many faiths and no faith.... An exciting achievement."

"A pioneering exploration of collaborative ecumenical thinking. Illustrates the complementary and contrasting features in Judaism and Process Theology. In broadening the horizons of the search for wholeness, Artson opens a fantastic adventure of ideas."
-Rabbi Harold M. Schulweis, author, Conscience: The Duty to Obey and the Duty to Disobey; founder, Jewish Foundation of the Righteous and the Jewish World Watch
"Extraordinary ... speaks to the real-world experience of many people who find a fixed set of religious beliefs and teachings incompatible with what they know.... Explicates a twenty-first-century Judaism that is dynamic, constructive, ethical and deeply meaningful; offers ways for us to think about prayer, ritual and Israel, and about what we must do to create greater justice."
-Ruth W. Messinger, president, American Jewish World Service
