Bereishit Toldot - 60 second video sermon


This week, Miriam Lorie is joined by her colleague Sarah Beth Neville @sarah_beth_nev this week to discuss the parasha Toldot.


Isaac digging wells isn't the most obvious place to go in this week's parasha but there are some deep (geddit?) and moving ideas within for our times. Persistence and creativity are the the way to go, even when it means letting go of our previous conceptions, and the language we used to have. Letting go even of the way that past generations looked at a conflict and re-naming.


May we find those waters of peace SOON!
