Refa'einu: Prayer, Sefirah And Healing From Trauma
In this final episode to the series, Rabbi Fohrman and Imu link Sefirah back to Refa’einu, the blessing for healing, to tie together the many themes of this series into a single timely message of faith. This series traced the Israelites’ journey from Exodus to Sinai, through the story of marah and the manna, to show the incredible process God used to heal the Israelites from the trauma of slavery. Now, join Rabbi Fohrman and Imu for their final reflection on how these textual insights speak to the spiritual crises that COVID-19 has raised -- maintaining faith in a time of unknowns, recovering from trauma, persevering in the face of fear -- to offer empowering and inspiring guidance through these challenging times.
