When Is It Okay to Stop Listening? – Rabbi Shoshanah Conover
<p>Which sirens do we need to hear, and which ones do we need permission to block out?</p><p>In this sermon, Rabbi Conover reflects on a recent trip to Israel, the constant vigilance of listening for missile alerts, and the very different sirens of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey. Drawing on the Shema, Jewish tradition, and the demands of life in a world competing for our attention, she explores how to remain informed without becoming overwhelmed.</p><p>We cannot let everything in, but we cannot shut everything out. Rabbi Conover asks what it means to listen with precision, opening ourselves to the voices that truly need us while protecting the clarity, joy, and presence that allow us to respond with compassion.</p>

What HGTV Taught Me About the Fall of Jerusalem
<p>Every renovation show has the same twist: demolition always comes before the beautiful reveal. Turns out, so does the Jewish calendar. On Shabbat Chazon — the Shabbat before Tisha B'Av — Rabbi Gellman traces a scandalous dinner party that (according to the Talmud) brought down the Second Temple, a Hasidic master's vision of what comes next, and why the real prep for the High Holy Days starts not in September, but right now.</p>

When Does Silence Become Complicity? – Rabbi Max Antman
<p>Recorded live on July 10, 2026.</p><p>When does staying silent stop being neutral?</p><p>In this week's sermon on Parashat Matot-Masei, Rabbi Antman explores an ancient Torah law with a strikingly modern message: silence is never just the absence of words. Drawing on Jewish tradition, the Talmud, and recent Supreme Court dissents by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, he reflects on the moral responsibility to speak out when our values are at stake.</p><p>What do we owe our communities, our leaders, and one another? And when does choosing not to object make us complicit?</p><p>This sermon is a powerful invitation to find the courage to use our voices—even when speaking up is uncomfortable, unpopular, or comes at a cost.</p>
