True wholeness is gained from experiencing brokenness, our need for others and the call to responsibility. View the study sheet here. Watch the recording here.
Twenty-first century living has produced this unique paradox: Never before has the world been so integrated and simultaneously so separated.
The Torah opens with a series of cautionary tales about the dangers of living without curiosity, without a sense of responsibility for others. The fruit of true wholeness remains just out of reach. A flood of rapacious self-concern inundates our world. Our structures of conceit crumble.
The correction to all this is also a paradox: To become truly sovereign I must humble myself; to gain I must give away. Jewish mysticism describes this process as making nothing out of something. Islamic mysticism teaches that fullness is found within the null set.
Join us here at 7:00 p.m. (PDT) Thursday October 7 as we explore brokenness and true wholeness.
