Zoom Room Bet
This six-week class is inspired by Rabbi David Wolpe’s book “Making Loss Matter: Creating Meaning in Difficult Times,” which explores six kinds of loss—home, dreams, self, love, faith, and life. Woven throughout each class session are teachings from a variety of traditional and contemporary Jewish sources, sources from other traditions, experiential practices, storytelling, and opportunities for self-reflection and chevruta/small-group discussion. (Participants will need to purchase the book, which is available used.) Led by Tivona Reith.
