Leading With Our Values, featuring Dr. Micah Goodman — iEngage Series Launch

January 31, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am

Dr. Micah Goodman, author of Catch 67 and a leading voice in Judaism, Zionism, the Bible, and the challenges and opportunities facing Israel and contemporary world Jewry, launched the iEngage program with this community conversation. iEngage: Jewish Values and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, a program of the Sholom Hartman Institute, explores one of the most divisive issues affecting the Jewish people today.

By studying Jewish narratives about Israel and the unpacking of the complex meanings of peace in the Jewish tradition, participants are invited to explore the ideas and values that animate different attitudes toward the conflict and how these values shape their own political understandings. Though a common political platform may not be attainable, this course strives to achieve shared respect for our differences.

Program sponsored by the Minneapolis Jewish Federation and JCRC. Conversation moderated by Rabbi Debra Rappaport.

Registration is required. Please RSVP here.
