Our Latest Sermon
Watch
As we roll the Torah back to the beginning on Shabbat Bereshit, we’re invited to engage with the question: Who am I? Each new year, we bring fresh perspectives and insights, discovering verses we may never have noticed before. This week, the Torah offers us two perspectives on creation: one that highlights our divine potential as beings created in God's image, and another that reveals our dual nature—a balance between the physical and the spiritual. In our busy lives, this balance often feels familiar. We seek purpose and fulfillment, yet we’re also drawn to immediate desires. The Torah suggests that both sides of ourselves have a place, and our task is to live meaningfully with both. How will you let this question guide your choices this year, bringing these ancient lessons into your modern life?
