Rabbi Kleinbaum & Rabbi Moskowitz Present Their New Book "Chaver Up!"

During this time of the Hebrew calendar when we count the 49 days of the Omer, it's a perfect time to share these teachings from 49 spiritual leaders who grapple with the complexity, messiness, and human fallibility of allyship, as well as its beauty, holiness, and power to restore good. The writings are wise, searing, and emotional, and invite us to forge new paths of human kindness and action.

You can find the book, in both paperback and e-book formats, here. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on these 49 teachings, and what they mean to you personally.
Spring has arrived, and a brand new crop of
Lehrhaus Adult Education classes at CBST 
will begin post-Pesach!
 
Starting the week of April 12th, engage in an 8-week course of study with CBST's rabbis and educators! Take the next step in your Hebrew learning, study the Shabbat Siddur, acquire the sacred skill of chanting Hebrew scriptures, or discover Yiddish literature and language – all online at CBST.
