Lunch & Learn Fall Session: The Secrets Contained in Dreams
Join Rav Weisberg and Rabbi Booth for our continued exploration of human consciousness. We will be looking at dreams, their significance, interpretation and potential meaning. Are they prophetic messages from the Divine? Revelations of our inner state? Or simply a tool of fixing memory? We will explore Talmud and mystical views with an awareness of contemporary research.

TANACH STUDY

Have you ever wanted to read the entire Bible all the way through? Study the TaNaCH (Torah, Prophets, and Writings) as a larger spiritual and literary work, as opposed to by the parsha? Are you wondering about the larger picture and connections? Want to dive deeper into the various stories, characters, and themes? Then, this is the class for you! We will meet most Sunday mornings, unless it conflicts with other Adult Ed or holiday events. Register here!
