The Big Count *Up*
Listen now
Description
This week the Rabbis JG are talking about the ritual of counting the Omer, a sacred bridging of the time from Passover to Shavuot, pessimism and optimism, as well as speaking to a particular painful reckoning in the Reform Movement with regard to abuse of power.  Are you a count “upper” or count “downer?”  How do you sustain the time it takes to reach mountaintop moments? Featuring the beautiful music of Rabbis Yosef Goldman, Zach Fredman and Shir Yaakov Feit.  For more of Yosef's music, check out his latest CD on bandcamp and the Rising Song Institute.
