    Experience a preview of Resetting the Table’s “Community Speaking Across Conflict” workshop, hosted by the Jewish Community Relations Council. Resetting the Table is a nationally renowned organization that “equips and activates leaders from across American life to transform toxic political divides.” Following the success of our April 2025 workshop, we’re excited to welcome Resetting the Table back to Birmingham this spring (April 15–16) to engage both new and returning participants in meaningful conversation across political difference. At this March 8 preview workshop, participants will learn more about Resetting the Table, hear from community members who have previously taken part in the training, and participate in an interactive activity designed to build skills for more constructive dialogue across difference. Brunch included.   RSVP at https://ourtemple.shulcloud.com/form/reset2026

    From Prophecy to Leading Jewishly – TEE
    Temple Emanu-El 2100 Highland Ave, Birmingham, AL, United States

    The largest section of the TaNaKh, our most central Jewish text, is Nevi’im, the Prophets. In the numerous books of this section, we encounter the prophets of our tradition. The prophets in this text are passionate and moral people who desperately want to pass the word of God onto the Israelite people. The task of these figures is to be a compelling microphone of God, and help the chosen people find the best way to live according to God’s laws. Each prophet strives to make the world a better place. In the course, we will dive deeply into the Prophets, learning how to apply the text to our modern lives as well as examining the text itself through a lens on the Hebrew and commentary.
