Let’s talk about God!
Rabbi Emeritus of Congregation Shomrei Torah, George Gittleman, joins Rabbi Irwin Keller for a conversation about God. What do we mean when we talk about God, and what do we not mean? How do we hold historic God language and imagery? And what is the Divine for this moment – in times of chaos and fear and grief?
Join us for this juicy talk.
Live in person and also on Zoom.
Three evenings of Meditation with Rabbi George Gittleman
Freedom is an open heart:
Mindfulness practice and Jewish wisdom
for hard times
Three Thursdays: April 10, 17, May 1 • 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
During Passover we commemorate yetziat mitzrayim, the exodus from the “narrow straits” in our lives, the places where we are constricted, stuck, seemingly unable to break free. While we often think of this timeless tale on the material plane — literal slavery – it also exists in the realm of the spirit, a profound metaphor for the perils and potential of our inner life.
In this 3-session class, Rabbi George will guide us on a heart opening journey “from slavery to freedom” through the heart opening practice of Metta/Blessings practice. We’ll explore the places where we are likely to get stuck and compassionately train our hearts to open to whatever the moment brings. There will be teaching, instructions and extending periods of silence. All are welcome…
Fee: $25/session or $75 for all 3 sessions
