More about this Course...
In today’s fast-paced and complex world, people long for stability and connection — a way to understand where they stand in relation to the past, present, and future. Humans often seek meaning, belonging, and purpose through communities like book clubs, workout groups, or parenting circles. But as Jews, we have an enduring tradition that offers all of this and more. It’s a time-tested guide that grounds us in a shared history and weaves us into a network of relationships that span across time and space. Through our ancient relationship with time and the rituals that mark and elevate it, we fulfill our spiritual, communal, psychological, emotional, and social needs as human beings. In this course, Jewish educators of all types will learn tried-and-true methodologies for creating emotion- and thought-provoking learning experiences that, steeped in deep, rich, authentic Jewish text, will show their learners all they can gain by participating in the four holidays of Tishrei.
