Lunch & Learn with Rabbi Wendy
Learning to Love Ourselves
Wednesdays at 11:45 a.m. (RSVP Required - $22 per person)
Do Jews love being Jewish? It's a question that might make us a little uncomfortable - which is exactly why it's worth asking. This three-session course traces the complicated, often ambivalent relationship Jews have had with their own identity - from the biblical Israelites who longed to return to Egypt, to the self-deprecating humor of Woody Allen, to the Jews who change their names and drift from their communities. Together, we will explore what it truly means to embrace who we are - and what gets in the way. Honest, thought-provoking, and surprisingly personal.
6/3 - Love Your Neighbor as Yourself
7/8 - From Egypt to Enlightenment
8/12 - Jews in Modern Media
