Perverters of Justice and Pluralized Karma - Rabbi Sharon Brous: The warnings famously issued in this parashah are not Biblical fantasy—they are living reality. When we allow powerful people to deceive, mock and instrumentalize those most vulnerable, when we cede to a norm of heartlessness, indifference and the perversion of justice, there is no end to the cruelties that will permeate our society. It’s time to wake up—to recognize this moment and movement for exactly what it is. by IKAR Sermons & Talks

Like a Ripple - Rabbi Lebell: We live in a vast, complex world. It’s beautiful, but wracked with devastation and suffering. Infinitesimal in the face of it all, one wonders how they could possibly make a difference. The first four words of Parshat Re’eh teach us that each individual’s presence does in fact have an impact on the wider community, and a single action can even tip the whole world toward good. Let’s choose to live like every single one of us matters, like the way we live can bring us closer to a healed, redeemed world. by IKAR Sermons & Talks
18 min listen
Even When You’re Far Away, I’m Right Here - Rabbi Sharon Brous: As we prepare to bring our oldest to college, I feel for Moses, struggling to say goodbye to his own children as they stand poised to enter the Promised Land, knowing this is a journey they must take without his guiding presence by their side. Somehow, amidst the confused, rambling contradictions, Moses helps b’nai Yisrael remember what matters most, and reminds us just what we need to hear as well. by IKAR Sermons & Talks

Leaving Egypt in a Warming World - Rabbi Morris Panitz: Egypt is not just a place.

In each generation, every individual must see themselves as though they left Egypt, which begs the question: on the road to freedom, what will each of us do to leave Egypt behind us? by IKAR Sermons & Talks
