In the Wilderness: Navigating and Learning from Uncertainty and Instability

Many of us -- as individuals, as a congregation, as a nation -- feel we are living in "the inbetween", a moment of transition, a season of change, an era of uncertainty and instability. In many ways, Rosh Hashanah is about navigating such moments; "Today the world stands as at birth," no longer what it was, not yet what it will be. Rachel Douglas (Executive Director of The Innerwork Center), Jason Kamras (Superintendent of Richmond Public Schools), and Dr. Mitchell C. Reid, PhD, LCP (Clinical Psychologist specializing in child psychology), join Rabbi Michael Knopf for this important conversation about navigating and learning from our “inbetweens."

Why Are You Here?

Rabbi Knopf's message for Rosh Hashanah 5783, on the purpose of religion, especially during eras of upheaval.
