To Listen and to Love
by Rabbi Rami M. Shapiro
Simply Jewish Foundation0

At the heart of Jewish liturgy are the Sh'ma and the Ve'ahavta. The first calls you to listen to the "still small voice of God" within and around us; the second challenges you to engage life in a way that unifies body, heart, mind, and soul in acts of godliness. This small booklet is an exploration of these two prayers, setting out their theological underpinnings and the practical spiritual disciplines that allow you to do what these prayers ask you to do: Listen and Love.
