J. Newman Levy Speaker Series: "Laughing Through Life"

"Laughing Through Life" featuring Rabbi Daniel Roberts

Rabbi Daniel Roberts is a graduate from The Rayen School. He was influenced to become a rabbi through his participation in the youth group at Temple Rodef Shalom. Rabbi Roberts served Temple Emanu El in Cleveland for 35 years and was named Rabbi Emeritus. He is an author of several books on suicide and a children’s book, "Once Upon a Kingdom: Parables on Morals, Values and Kindness." Rabbi Roberts was twice voted “The Funniest Rabbi in Cleveland."

After moving to Denver, Colorado to be near family, he was encouraged to use his sense of humor to do comedy shows at various senior living communities in the Denver Area. Rabbi Roberts has been doing this for the last five years. Come and laugh with him! One has to laugh one's way through life.

Jewish humor has changed the world. Some of the greatest comedians were Jewish and their humor delighted audiences for years. Hear some of their comedy and some new jokes that only a rabbi can tell.
