How the Purim Story teaches us to free ourselves so we can liberate others

Purim is the last holiday of the Jewish Calendar. If Passover is about God freeing the slaves, Purim is about the people freeing themselves. Helping ourselves to live good lives, and helping others to do so is the goal of Judaism.

We will talk about and meditate on some of the themes of Purim, such as figuring out our real names, living in places that are not always warm and welcoming, and not letting the anger of others consume us.

This Sunday, 3/9
