I Care About Our Safety. And I Care About Our Soul. - Rabbi Sharon Brous
We must have zero tolerance for violent and racist rhetoric in our Jewish community. We must support the birth of a new mixed multitude: those who reject extremism, who reject the violent, reductive idea that Palestinians and Jews must be eternal enemies. That one’s victory necessitates another’s victimhood, or even worse: elimination. This mixed multitude is made of people who know that we do not undermine our own sorrow or betray our own people when we see one another, those who understand that our fates are all tied up in one another.

A Righteous Protest Calls for Collective Liberation - Rabbi Sharon Brous
The protest movement has unleashed a virulent and dangerous antisemitism that endangers Jews, threatens democracy, and undermines the fight for justice and liberation for Palestinians. We must do better. What we need is a movement fueled by empathy and moral imagination. One that recognizes that both peoples have suffered terribly. That neither is leaving. That a just future is possible for everyone.

Training Our Hearts in Spaciousness - Rabbi Sharon Brous
The free person, awake and humble, can acknowledge the
truth that emerges from various even contradictory perspectives. This is not a
sign of weakness, but of spiritual liberation. Perhaps that the very essence of
freedom is growing in spaciousness.

Thank You for helping to shape my moral world view
These sermons and classes teach me so much and help put into words and context my own personal moral view. The Rabbis are all smart, interesting and challenging!
Learning.
I’m a shy Jew. Raised in a home where my Judaism was hidden. I’m no longer in that closet. But still shy. That’s to say I attend temple on this podcast. Xxxx
Thank you
