The Women’s Leadership Institute offers classes to the Jewish women of Phoenix and beyond to create community, foster deeper Jewish identity, and allow a space to explore women’s voices within Jewish texts.
Inspired by Rabbi Amy Scheinerman’s wonderful work, The Talmud of Relationships, in this semester we will be focusing on our study on Talmudic texts that help us understand how we relate to one another, and to the world around us. Answer questions like: How can I best relate to people in need? Is there a way to learn to accept my own suffering and the suffering of others? How can I best balance my different responsibilities? How do I relate to others when I find them difficult?
Join us to see how, even thousands of years later, these ancient texts continue to have meaning in our 21st century lives. And don’t be afraid to bring your own experiences to the table! Each one of us has something to add to this age-old sacred dialogue.
You do not need to have studied Talmud before to join us!
Please contact Rabbi Emily Langowitz (rabbilangowitz@womenlearning.org) with any questions.
