The Five H's of Judaism

I spent half my life agnostic and the rest, God-focused. Growing up in a Los Angeles-based Conservative Jewish family, we never dabbled in theology but we relished in our culture and peoplehood. In the synagogue, our clergy and teachers presented everything other than belief, concentrating on what I like to call the four H’s: Holy Land, Holocaust, Hebrew and Holidays. It filled my soul with meaning and substance.
