    Bless You!
    Don’t Underestimate the Power of Blessing
    With Rabbi Ari Sollish
    (Recorded live in Atlanta on June 3, 2020)
    Judaism bestows great power to the priestly class, enjoining them to bless the people. The eternal words of the Priestly Blessing are uttered at every occasion, and in this class, we discover the power and opportunity that every Jew has to unleash the force of blessing on whomever they so desire. Bless you!

    “Seeing Is Believing,” They Said. They Were Wrong.
    It’s Time to Take an Honest Look at Our Mistakes
    With Rabbi Ari Sollish
    (Recorded live in Atlanta on May 27, 2020)
    If someone told you they met a ten-foot giant, you probably wouldn’t believe them. But if you actually saw the guy, well, you saw him. End of story. To see is to connect—and that’s the key to a meaningful Judaism, and a lodestar for constant progress: look at the past, connect with it, and take the appropriate lessons to heart.

    With Rabbi Ari Sollish

    Love is tricky -- especially today. The times we live in present some unique challenges to love and relationships.
    Maybe we're too far away from those we love. Maybe we're too close.
    Turns out Kabbalah has a lot to say on Modern Love. By studying the mystical doctrine of the Four Worlds, we will uncover a powerful paradigm for understanding and cultivating love.
    In this session of Kabbalah & Coffee we untangle the mysteries of love and reveal the architecture of creation.

    Rest Assured
    With Rabbi Ari Sollish
    (Recorded live in Atlanta on May 26, 2020)
    Shabbat is one of Judaism’s greatest gifts. In a society that prizes multitasking and prioritizes urgencies, Shabbat offers a welcome respite from the noise to ponder what is truly important. However, when it comes to the nitty gritty of Shabbat’s dos and don’ts, many find themselves perplexed by their logic and seeming pettiness. This lesson unveils the wisdom and neat construct inherent in the laws of Shabbat, and translates its model into practical guidelines for modern observance, infused with soul and spirituality.
