Sharon Brous is a rabbi who dances to the beat of her own drum – and that's often one that plays at her services. She is the rabbi of IKAR, a group of prayer-filled LA Jews who pray with such devotion that even if you don't understand a word of the traditional Hebrew they are chanting, the fervor is contagious. She is soulful, passionate, and blazing a path for liberal, inclusive religious zeal.

Arthur Rosenberg will tell you that he didn't ask to be called to serve God, but it's what he finds himself doing. His first career was as a teacher and his second as an actor. Now he finds himself serving as the Rabbi/Chaplain of the Motion Picture Hospital in Los Angeles and performing life-cycle events for those in need of rabbinic services. Arthur is a true man of faith – doing that which he has been called to do.

Amichai Lau-Lavie runs Storahtelling – a collective of artists helping people to get in touch with their spirit in a multitude of outside-the-box type ways.   The "RitualLab Shabbat Services" that he conducts are more improvisational jazz performance by all those in attendance playing parts of than anything "by the book." He is a brilliant artist whose work happens to be in the medium of religion.

Larry Keene was a minister and a professor of sociology for 50 years.   He retired, found that he has the soul of an artist, and for the past two years has been creating beautiful stained-glass art - nothing he ever thought he would do.   (I am so very proud to have been able to witness this "ol' man" learn a few new tricks and watch him tend to his inner child who likes so much to play.) He's more religious now than ever.
