“Alright everyone… it’s time to learn from our very best friend… The Torah.”
- Sara Beth Berman
(a wonderful friend and mentor from my time working at the URJ Camp Coleman)
* Some of the best learning I have done is through giving sermons and teaching others. Below are clips of three different sermons that I have given throughout my tenure at HUC *
Barbie, Oppenheimer
& The High Holy Days
Whether you’re Team Barbie or Team Oppenheimer, the world *and the High Holy Days* are FULL of dichotomies. How do we bridge the gap between what feels so starkly dissonant? By embracing it.
Israel & US on the SeeSaw
A SeeSaw and a balance scale have one major thing in common. When one side tips down, the other goes up. The end goal is to reach equilibrium. Leviticus 19:36 states “You shall have an honest balance”. In our relationship to Israel too, it is important to find balance in the constantly moving scale.
Senior Sermon Parashat Vayera
This Sermon was given at HUC-JIR in my fourth year, five months after the Supreme Court overturn of Roe v. Wade.
