Ross Friedman is back this July with an On Gratitude course.
The class will be comprised of stories, poems, essays, songs, and videos, most of which will be announced the week before so students can come to class prepared while some of which will be cool surprises.

I’m looking forward to coming back to the podium, and I expect this class to be a pleasing and meander through inspiring and uplifting works.

Talmudic Ethics: Finding Your Way To Good Decisions
Mon 11:00AM - 12:00PM
Jul 17, 2023 to Aug 21, 2023
We all have moments when we are faced with tough ethical decisions and need to pick a course of action that will let us live with ourselves. Traditionally, Jews have looked to the Talmud to help them unravel tangled instincts. The Talmud recognizes that ethics is complex and subtle, and knows that complicated questions cannot be answered with a simple yes or no. The Talmud offers perspectives to help us make sense of life's most wrenching dilemmas. This course tackles ethical issues such as the right to live, the right to die, freedom of expression, and intellectual property. Discover how Judaism offers a moral compass to help us find direction through the labyrinth of life.  Click here to register.
