Is Prayer Past Its Prime?
Saturday, December 6, 2025 • 16 Kislev 5786
9:30 AM - 11:00 AMHermelin HallIs prayer outdated … or perhaps more to the point, is our method of praying outdated?
The prayer service as we know it was designed by and large 2,000 years ago. The American Jewish community of the 21st century is now radically different than our rabbis of old and it is different even from 20th century Judaism.
Join Rabbi Aaron Starr as we look at the evolution of prayer and discuss how prayer might – and perhaps should -- change in the future.
This event is free and open to the community. No registration is necessary. Coffee and a light breakfast will be served, generously sponsored by Shelley and Joel Tauber.
“Wisdom & Coffee” provides an opportunity for learning and conversation on a Shabbat morning that is entirely separate from our prayer service. Participants may choose to dress casually and come just for the Wisdom and Coffee, or they may stay for the Shabbat service as well.
