According to Rabbi Danny Burkeman, the congregation is the beating heart of Jewish education, a driver of change which brings community together and inspires Jewish learning. So how does a synagogue adapt to keep Jewish education stimulating?
 
 In an inspiring conversation recorded before October 7th, Rabbi Danny Burkeman and David Bryfman discuss innovative ways to engage people in their Judaism, whether Jewish learning is a spectator sport or a participatory sport, and the Torah of Ted Lasso. This week's episode of Adapting serves as an important follow-up to the Census report that The Jewish Education Project released last year in an effort to continue the conversation of the role of part-time Jewish education.

This episode was produced by Dina Nusnbaum and Miranda Lapides. The show’s executive producers are David Bryfman, Karen Cummins, and Nessa Liben.

This episode was engineered and edited by Nathan J. Vaughan of NJV Media.
