ImageThe Reform Movement is in the midst of an identity crisis. According to a Jewish Week article on July 4th, guest musicians came to Kutz Camp, the Reform movement’s teen leadership camp and led a jazzed-up version of the evening prayers. One by one, 40 campers in their mid-teens got up and walked out. They wanted a more traditional service, they later explained.
