Description
Rabbi Moskowitz's sermon about the rise of antisemitism.  He explores the different types of antisemitic hate and how best to respond, saying, "Prayer is about perspective.  And being a Jew is about having hope.  We can perseverate about Kanye, we can dwell on Colleyville, we can become depressed about the lives lost at the Tree of Life Synagogue.  And this would all be understandable.  We must never forget those who were murdered because of antisemitic hate in Pittsburgh and in far too many places we have called home.  But this is not our only story."  This sermon was recorded in our synagogue's sanctuary on Friday evening, October 28th.
