SUMMARY:The Sacred Struggle: Jewish Responses to Trauma
DESCRIPTION:The Sacred Struggle: Jewish Responses to Trauma\nLed by Rabbi Benjamin David\nTuesday, June 16 at 7:30 pm (Hybrid)\nWe are thrilled to welcome Rabbi Ben David to Kol Ami as our teacher for this meaningful session. He will lead a discussion on his book, The Sacred Struggle: Jewish Responses to Trauma, in which Jewish responses to various types of trauma are addressed. \nBecause of some sensitive content, it is suggested that all attendees be 18 years of age or older.\nCopies of Rabbi David’s book will be available at a discounted rate.\nThere is no cost for congregants to attend; $15/person or screen for non-members.\nIn-person attendance is encouraged, livestream will be available.\nRegistration is required by noon, June 15, so we can adequately prepare.\n \n\nThe Sacred Struggle: Jewish Responses to Trauma\nHow do we find the strength to continue when dealing with traumatic experiences? The Sacred Struggle: Jewish Responses to Trauma is a powerful anthology of personal stories, offering a deeply moving exploration of how Jewish wisdom can help us navigate life’s most difficult moments. With stories including enduring the loss of a child, losing a loved one to suicide, surviving sexual assault, responding to a diagnosis of cancer, experiencing antisemitism and racism, and many more, this volume is rooted in vulnerability and resilience, revealing the profound ways Judaism offers tools for reflection, connection, and healing. Edited by Rabbi Lindsey Danziger and Rabbi Benjamin David, with a foreword by Rabbi Charlie Cytron-Walker, The Sacred Struggle is a companion for anyone seeking comfort and hope in the face of trauma.\n
