“Time For A New God” -- Provocative New Documentary Challenges our View of God, Looks at The Sacred in Everyday LifeThe Film, Featuring Rabbi Irwin Kula, Will Be Screened at the SILVERDOCS Film Festival in the Washington, DC Area on June 16 & 17, 2004
By Judy Epstein, Director of Public AffairsIn an era of
pervasive conflict and global unrest, where is God’s place in our society?
“Time for a New God,” a new short documentary featuring Rabbi Irwin Kula,
President of CLAL -The National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership,
looks at our ideas of spirituality. Challenging our notions of how we
experience God, Rabbi Kula asserts that often the sacred is not found in
our houses of worship, but in our bonds with each other and in the
ordinary moments of life. He claims that our spirituality is hollow unless
we spend more time connecting to each other, since we are the only genuine
"images of God."
