I just got a package of materials from my father (printouts from outreachtojudaism.com) with this note:
Dear Luke,
Hope all is well with you – health and all things else.
If you ever get a chance to look at this, I would be very grateful for your critique of it. If you do a good job you may make a Jew of me.
With much love,
Dad
My relationship with my father has always been about books and ideas. When I was ten, he gave me $20 to read the Bible straight-through in a year.
