Rabbi Glick on Rabbi Spitz

“On the weekend of July 12–13, I am delighted that my friend and mentor Rabbi Elie Spitz (https://eliespitz.com/) will be coming to the synagogue. He is a recently retired congregational Rabbi once described to me as ‘the best congregational Rabbi in America.’ He is the author of the definitive Jewish book on the afterlife, Does the Soul Survive? On Friday night, please join him for a festive musical Shabbat, dinner, and a lecture and discussion on that book. On Saturday morning, after kiddush, he will turn to his latest book on Psalms and teach Psalm 23, ‘The Lord is my Shepherd.’”
