Rabbi Esther Hugenholtz News, Sermon Lech Lecha
Can we be like Abram? Can we center ourselves on our morality and center each other’s humanity? Can we hold difference and create space? Can we recognize grievance and pain, diversity and blessing? Can we leverage wealth and power not for prestige and conquest but for compassion and the common good?
Rabbi Esther Hugenholtz Sermon Lech Lecha
