There comes a time in most people's lives when he or she asks key questions: What can I believe about God, prayer, the source of ethics, the problem of evil, the answers in which we find our own tranquility? Warning: There are no right or wrong answers. Rabbi Warshal shares his own quest but makes no claim to finding universal truth, only his personal truth. If this book helps each person find his or her own way--schlepping through life without a road map--then he would consider the book a success. The process works for readers of all religions and those with none. But he presents the topics within a Jewish context and concludes the book with relating one's conclusions to the structure of the Jewish communal life in America.

Bruce Warshal is an eighty-six-year-old who has schlepped through life without a road map as a Reform rabbi, economics instructor, Yale-trained lawyer, not-for-profit executive director, and CEO of a newspaper chain. He hasn't decided what he wants to be when he grows up.

Reviews for Schlepping Through Life Without a Road Map

"""Schlep--most of us think to 'drag' or to 'haul.' But the Oxford dictionary defines it as a 'slow difficult journey, especially one that you do not want to make.' Bruce Warshal takes us on a challenging journey of questioning our beliefs in God, Judaism, ethics, and the Jewish people. He uses much of his own experience and background in helping us find, not necessarily the answers, but the questions to provide us with meaning in our life and world."" --Robert Silvers, rabbi emeritus, Congregation B'nai Israel ""Bruce Warshal is a tough-minded, soft-hearted liberal who writes in a unique style that belies its rabbinical erudition. His masterful exploration of emotional and intellectual intelligences related to situational ethics that should inform real-life decision-making is essential reading."" --Robert E. Kaufman, retired foreign service officer"
