V’etchanan: Pleading with God
With Rabbi Yael Werber
Wednesdays, July 2, 9, 16, and 23 | 10:00am | Zoom | Free for all | Register
Join Rabbi Werber for a series that delves into one of the most profound moments in the Torah: Moses confronting his own death. In this four-week class, we’ll take a deep look at the final chapter of Moses’s life and how we can learn from his journey. As Moses comes to terms with his mortality, we’ll explore the stories, emotions, and questions that arise in those moments.
Loving Kindness
With Rabbi Mike Moskowitz
Mondays, July 7, 14, 21, and 28 | 6:30pm | Zoom | Free for all | Register
This text-based class will explore Rabbinic sources on kindness as the pathway to piety. These insights will provide space to shift our outlooks and to think about human interactions as spiritual opportunities, all while deepening our love for kindness and each other.
My Israel Story: Conversations with Rabbi Klein
With Rabbi Jason Klein
Wednesdays, August 6, 13, 20, and 27 | 6:30pm | Zoom | Free for all | Register
CBST’s mission includes a commitment to Israel and engaging in supporting efforts to secure peace, justice, and equality for all. What does this mean for each of us? Rabbi Klein is expecting to return from the land near the end of July. Join them to hear about their trip and for some guided conversations about our relationships with the people, the land, and the state of Israel.
