What’s Love (Ahavah) Got To Do With It? Well, Everything Actually!
There are a myriad of teachings and practices related to the subject of Ahavah/Love in our relationships. In this session we will explore the commandment to “Love your neighbor as yourself” from Leviticus 19:18. We will be guided by Rabbi Eliyahu Dessler’s Mussar text Kuntrus HaChessed Michtav M’Eliyahu, Volume 1 “Source of Love,” we will consider how ‘giving’ creates an opportunity to “love our neighbors as ourselves.”

The Right Ways to Be Righteous
Throughout the Jewish tradition, our Sages have extolled the virtues of the tzaddik (צדיק), a righteous person. But what does it mean for one to be a tzaddik? Is there even any agreement on what defines a tzaddik or how a person can aspire to live their lives in this world? Come learn direct from our sources and Sages about the path of the righteous person and the many ways this can impact our lives each day.

Saving Shavuot: The Invention of a Diaspora Holiday
In our Torah, Shavuot is an agricultural festival with no fixed date or origin story. How did it turn into a commemoration of the giving of the Torah at Sinai? This session explores the early history of Shavuot and its connections to revelation and exile. - Chapel

Honoring Parents, Even When It's Hard
In this session, we will explore Talmudic discussions about honoring parents, including anecdotes about very difficult parents. Along the way, we will seek to understand how to fulfill this mitzvah, which is so central that it merited a place in the ten commandments, as well as what to do when honoring our parents is not simple.

Tonal Torah or “Niggun Nigleh”
We'll tune, and attune our souls and voices to prepare for (and experience?!) revelation by singing wordless melodies. What Torah will be revealed through the sounds and harmonies we create? We'll find out together. - Chapel
Rabbi Daniel Bogard
"The Story of Us"
Who were the first people to imagine themselves as "us", as "Jews"? What were their core stories that they told themselves about who they were, where they came from, and what they believed about the world? This class will follow the first thousand years of Jewish history to tell the story of how the Torah came to be, and the people and cultures who formed it.
