This American Shabbat
This American Shabbat
This American Shabbat at Rodfei Zedek is based on National Public Radio's This American Life. But rather than Ira Glass and a team of writers discussing a given issue, three members of the community offer their nuanced understandings of the week's Torah portion. Following a period of learning with Rabbi Minkus, each crafts a D'var Torah that is shaped and informed by those discussions. The program challenges the participants, and all of us, to understand how our personal exploration of Judaism relates to the Torah. This American Shabbat happens three times each year.

On Tu b'Shvat, the new year begins for trees, an apt time for us to consider what can we do to help heal our ailing Earth. How can Jewish thought and practice inform how we relate to the more-than-human world? Join us on Sunday, February 5 at 10:30am for text study and Tu b'Shvat treats, as we consider these vital questions. All are welcome! -
