Over 20 years ago, Dr. David Silverstein was part of a groundbreaking documentary, "Trembling Before G-d," A film that describes itselfas "about gay and lesbian Orthodox Jews trying to reconcile their sexuality with their faith." On the Podcast, Dr. David Silverstein discusses his childhood in the 1960s and 1970s growing up in a tradition-oriented Jewish family in Gary, Indiana, in a time of large-scale transition that would soon close Temple Beth El of Gary, a Jewish community he cherished.
