    To See Sacred Potential

    Today’s episode is a Shabbat Replay of our service on Saturday, February 7th, when Rabbi Steven connected the wisdom of Shabbos rest to Tu B’Shehvat. In North America, the birthday of the trees is a time when deciduous trees are resting, and, for millions of years, the majestic pine stores burbling sap. We pine for your reviews. Leave us a five tree-star rating so we can get the word out about this show! *** For upcoming Shabbat services and programs, check our event calendar, and see our Accessibility & Inclusion page for information about our venues.

    You Want To Be A Stranger In Egypt

    Today’s episode is an especially musical Shabbat Replay from our service on January 9th. The word of the day in Rabbi Lizzi’s sermon was ger, or “Foreigner.” If You Want To Know What Love Is, this Urgent message will help you stay Hot Blooded in a world that feels Cold As Ice. I don’t know any other songs by Foreigner, but if you can think of another that might fit, include it in your 5 star review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen. So, how do we retain the wisdom of the outsider in an empire that feels more and more like Pharaoh’s Egypt by the day? Take it away, Rabbi. **** For upcoming Shabbat services and programs, check our event calendar, and see our Accessibility & Inclusion page for information about our venues.
