Rabbi Shapiro is very interested in storytelling and the ways in which story can be used to communicate and to better understand one's faith. He is particularly intent on making connections between scripture and everyday life. His innovative use of story, poetry, and religious writings has led to his reputation as one of the most creative individuals currently working in the American Jewish community, and prayers he has written are used in services in many temples across the country.
