Mussar: A Jewish Spirituality of Ethics
Mussar: A Jewish Spirituality of Ethics
Join us for Mussar: A Jewish Spirituality of Ethics with Raw Sarah Mulhern, Rabbi of Silverstein Base Lincoln Park Join us August 5 for Mussar: A Jewish Spirituality of Ethics With Rav Sarah Mulhern, Rabbi of Silverstein Base Lincoln Park 7:30 PM–9:00 PM at Base Lincoln Park We typically think of ethics and spirituality as quite different realms—ethics is about big thorny issues between human beings, and spirituality is about intimate emotional experiences and connection with the Divine. However the Mussar movement, which grew out of the 19th century Lithuanian Jewish community drawing on much older insights and texts, sees ethical self-improvement and directed character work as both a religious imperative and a spiritual practice. How can spiritual practice help you be a better person in everyday moments? How can pushing yourself ethically nurture your soul? Join us for this session where we will meet some of the core ideas and practices of Mussar, offering a different way to consider the relationship between spirituality and ethics and leaving you with practical tools to implement in your own journey towards a sacred life. ASL interpreter will be present. All are welcome to attend at no cost. Light dinner provided. Silverstein Base Lincoln Park is accessed by two flights of stairs. If this is not accessible to you, a livestream is available. Please email [email protected] for info. In partnership with Mishkan, BASE Lincoln Park, Ashe Emet Synagogue, and SketchPad. Rav Sarah Mulhern is a rabbi, educator, and community builder who serves as the Rabbi of Silverstein Base Lincoln Park, where she welcomes young adults and college students from across Chicago into her home for Jewish life and community. A nationally regarded Torah educator, she teaches widely on Jewish ethics, gender, and practice. She was ordained by Hebrew College, where she also earned a Master’s in Jewish Education, and received private rabbinic ordination from Rabbi Daniel Landes (Yashrut). Rav Sarah passionately believes that Torah matters and that Judaism can enrich human life and better society.
