The Shabbat Effect Book Tour with Alan Morinis

What if one sacred day of rest could transform the way you live every day?

 

March 19th | 7pm | PSJC and on Zoom

ALAN MORINIS is one of the leading lights in the revival of the Jewish spiritual tradition of Mussar and is the founder of The Mussar Institute.  He will be speaking about his new book The Shabbat Effect: Jewish Wisdom for Growth and Transformation.  The Shabbat Effect illuminates how the practice of a day set aside for rest brings about a deep, lasting, and pervasive transformation of character, not just on that seventh day but every day.

Fractures and Voices: The Struggles That Shape Israel

Series sessions - Thursdays | March 26, April 16 | 7:00pm |  PSJC

Israeli society is not divided by a single line, but shaped by multiple overlapping tensions. This series examines three of the most significant fault lines that continue to influence Israeli identity, politics, and cultural life. Instead of beginning with headlines or ideological arguments, we begin with culture.

 

Through music, poetry, film, and popular media, each session combines historical grounding with cultural expression. Participants encounter the past that explains the present, connect deeply with Israeli cultural creativity, and engage in honest conversations about identity, belonging, and responsibility.
