Shabbat Sermon: Cultivating Hope During Seemingly Hopeless Times by Dr. Irle Goldman
I must tell you that whenever I have entered this sanctuary, I am reminded of the Starship Enterprise of Star Trek….and now I have the honor of speaking from the Control Room, And I flash to Spock communicating “Beam me up Scotty”…
For me, this is a metaphor of how we use the spiritual power of this Sanctuary to create a Place For Healing.
A true story. When my 40 year old son Adam Goldman-Yassen was in second grade, they brought the class to the Temple Emanuel sanctuary…and they showed them around and said of these chairs back here, “ These is where the rabbis sit.
And Adam, having been brought up the the Newton Centre Minyan, the precursor of Minyan Ma’Or, A LAY-LED CONGREGATION, raised his hand and asked :“What’s a Rabbi?”
I share that story with you because I believe Psychotherapy is the attempt to create a secular clergy to supplement what the religious clergy can offer.
We are ALL the Purveyors of Hope.
