Rabbi Neal Joseph Loevinger
Spirituality Never Stops
The connections between building the Tabernacle and Yom Kippur reminds us that all aspects of our spirituality are connected.
Critiquing Our Leadership
While it's easy to complain about poor leadership, Parashat Mishpatim challenges us to critique from a committed, engaged perspective.
Portable Holiness
Holiness derives from encounters with God in Torah study; it is not intrinsic to locations like Mount Sinai.
Body And Soul Religion
Thought and internal spirituality still require physical action in order to deepen one's religious experience.
Don’t Just Stand There — Do Something!
Fear paralyzes us, rendering us incapable of addressing our most pressing problems.
The Redemption of Judah
Judah's plea to Joseph is a sign of his personal growth and ability to empathize with his father's grief.
Seeing The Ram
The miracle of the ram caught in the bushes was that, in the final moment, Abraham was able to perceive it as an alternative to sacrificing his son.
