Shabbat Haye Sarah – Rabbi Sharon Brous
Shabbat Haye Sarah – Rabbi Sharon Brous
Thousands of years ago, two estranged brothers stood together at the graveside and buried their father. Reconciliation is possible. But peace, unity, healing—these are the last steps in a long, transformative process. There are no shortcuts. Anything short of a real, honest reckoning does violence to the truth, fuels injustice, and endangers us and our future.

Hope is not naïve. It’s not some opiate to dull the pain of an oppressive reality. Hope may be the greatest act of defiance against a politics of pessimism and a culture of despair.

With the start of the holiday season, many of us will be away from loved ones and celebrating differently this year. Join us for Havdalah followed by a light-hearted Zoom event. We’ll play a game together and then split up into breakout rooms for IKARites to get to know each other better. Let’s make this season one where we can spend more time with our chosen family, the IKAR community!

These are difficult and unsettling times for all of us, and there is a lot that is unknown. But one thing we know: human beings need human contact, which is why we have now transitioned all of our programs to virtual.
