Today’s episode is a Shabbat Replay of our service on April 19th when Rabbi Steven drashed on the power and danger of anger. We can get pretty uncomfortable with this emotion these days, with good reason, and it can be awkward how present righteous anger is in the haggadah. How can we harness this potent feeling in a healthy way in pursuit of justice?

This Sunday, April 27th, at 10:00 am, Mishkan is thrilled to once again join our friends at Lawndale Christian Community Church for an interfaith service. Lawndale once held a thriving Jewish community, but racism, predatory contract lending, and white flight left the neighborhood under-resourced and highly segregated. We are honored to participate in the ribbon cutting ceremony for the Dr. Dennis Deer Community Justice Center, a new facility providing holistic justice through legal services, career support, and housing for clients of the Lawndale Christian Legal Center.
