As with genealogies, Leviticus and its recording of rituals and rubrics can appear tedious and best left for those anointed to the task. Embedded within the ancient rites are the rites and rituals we hold sacred today that help us come back to God, to our worshipping community, to neighbors, friends, family, and self. This conversation shows divergences and parallels in interpretation and understanding, and that both roads lead to reconciliation. Please join us and together perhaps we will find a way to heal.

When a genealogy comes up in Biblical texts eyes tend to glaze over, quickly scan without reading and move onto the story. The list of names in Matthew's opening chapter tell a rich and ancient story of anointed kings and priests and Jesus as the fulfillment of line. Not to be missed!

This story is always known as David and Bathsheba, and although the wife of Uriah the Hittite plays a role, this story is about so much more: lust, sin, coverup, and murder. It is also a story of remorse, forgiveness and consequence. Join Rabbi Fruithandler and Barbara Murphy as they struggle with the strange behavior of God's anointed King of Israel.

We know of the story of David and Goliath, but do we know what the story teaches beyond the small guy beating the big guy? Read 1 Samuel 17 and join Rabbi Jason Fruithandler and Barbara Murphy as they explore God's hand in victory.

Please join Rabbi Fruithandler and Barbara Murphy for this moving and powerful conversation about the God who delivers us from our bondage. "The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to keep still." Exodus 14:14

In this conversation Rabbi Fruithandler and Barbara Murphy talk about this man Moses and the encounter with that freed a people from four centuries of bondage and hard labor and what it means for us today and the weights under which we toil.
