    The Art of the Sermon: How to prepare, write, and give a D'var Torah

    This two part series taught by Rabbi David for Mitzvah, teens, and adults will explore what it takes to interpret a piece of inspiring Jewish learning and teach it to others. You need not be the greatest Torah scholar to say something profound about a selection of Torah. You need not be the most charismatic public speaker to share some wisdom. Come with your willingness to explore and get ready to be inspired and to inspire others. Kiddush will be served and enjoyed, as well.
