What could we #Jews and #Muslims do together?
A group of Jews & Muslims assembled at the Santa Monica Beach in Los Angeles, and also at City Hall, and performed their prayers together publicly. The day ended with a rooftop Isha’a, the Muslim midnight prayer while the Jewish participants recited Piyyutim, liturgical poetry.
We could do such things in our own community.

Have you used "Gates of Shabbat: Shaarei Shabbat" from #CCAR and the #ReformJewish movement? It is Reform Judaism's classic how-to guide about Shabbat observance and practices. This book is about Shabbat -- the Jewish treasure that comes around every seven days. In the midst of our freedom, Shabbat offers roots and inspiration along with joy and hope.

Have you davened from Mishkan Hanefesh? This is the newest #mahzor from #ReformJudaism
In your view, how does it compare to the classic Reform prayerbook, Gates of Repentance? Or to the Conservative movement's Mahzor Lev Shalem? Or to the Modern Orthodox mahzor from Koren?

Why should we pray? In Judaism one can see several schools of thought about this: The social approach; Rationalist; Mystical; and Educational. We take a look at these different points of view here

What are Jewish beliefs – its theology and philosophy?

It is important to know that Jews are as indigenous to Judea as Arabs are to Arabia, or as Kurds are to Kurdistan.
We see this in many Jewish rituals and in every siddur (Jewish prayerbook.)
All 3 daily Jewish prayer services are explicitly about our people's connection to Eretz Yisrael and Yerushalayim (Jerusalem)
