This season of Turn it & Turn it is on the topic of: "Food & Eating"
An invitation to members of the community to learn more about hunger and food insecurity in the United States, to consider our responsibilities toward those in need, and to find out what we can do to help.
This session: Why Rain Comes from Above: Biblical and Rabbinic Reflections on Sharing Our Blessings
Biblical and rabbinic texts about rain invite us to join in an exercise of religious imagination and to consider how this mundane—yet critically life-giving—event offers a model for reflecting on our responsibilities toward those who have less that we do. We will study several of these texts as a foundation for the work of learning about hunger and considering how we might respond.
