Here’s your chance to find answers to the questions you have about Judaism. As Jews we are on a lifelong journey for understanding and wisdom. At Temple Sholom, we offer many opportunities for adults to continue their exploration of Jewish culture and tradition.
• Jewish Perspectives on Health and Healing
What does Judaism have to say about our health? How can the Torah serve as a guide when we aspire for completeness in our lives? Does God hear our pain? Rabbi Mikelberg will address these questions and more as we look at Bibilical stories as a resource for contemporary issues pertaining to health and healing. These classes will be in partnership with the Healing Center.

• Downtown Talmud Study
What does the Talmud have to say about the issues of the day? Traditional Rabbinic wisdom sheds light on ethics, values and a variety or contemporary concerns. Bring your lunch and let’s talk Talmud! No experience necessary.
