Wellsprings, a quarterly journal of Jewish thought, explores a wide range of issues
of interest and concern to Jewish readers.
Drawing specifically upon Chabad Chasidic ideas, the journal strives
to uncover the inner meaning of Torah as it relates to the here
and now. In the process, disparate worlds are bridged and hidden
bonds are uncovered in the relationships of past and present, sacred
and mundane, spiritual and physical.
Features, essays, dialogues and book reviews that examine a whole
range of topics through the aperture of Chasidism offer readers
a new perspective on many an issue: obligation vs. inspiration in
spiritual service; individual expression within the traditional
Jewish community; the woman Chasid; the role of creative thinking
in Jewish education; the impact on children born through the new
reproductive technologies; sacred studies in secular settings; contemplative
prayer in 20th century; Kafka's frustrated search for redemption
. . . and much more. Through these and more, Wellsprings offers
readers a glimpse of humanity's progress toward the fulfillment
of the Divine purpose, and considers possibilities for our participation
in its achievement. Life in all its particulars is thus imbued with
purpose, allowing for a new dimension in the Jewish experience.
Over the years Wellsprings has succeeded in developing a following
of readers from across the Jewish spectrum. The journal's writers,
men and women, many of whom have traveled along their own circuitous
paths to Judaism, are intimately familiar with the questions, issues
and conflicts of interest to readers.
