Lesson Details
Lesson 1 The Message of Abraham
Our universal message isn’t “Be Jewish,” so what is it? See how Judaism’s universal concern began with Abraham and what ethical monotheism means in practice.
Lesson 2 Is Morality Obvious?
Can logic create morality? Explore the value of innate human dignity, where it comes from, and the trouble with pinning new sources to a timeless moral principle.
Lesson 3 Educating Children
Is raising kids all about career-prep? What should we teach our children at school and at home? See the critical purpose that makes family life so central to Judaism’s universal morality.
Lesson 4 It Will Get Better
History is a story of purpose and progress, not endless cycles of doom. See how this makes every moral choice a stepping stone to a harmonious future.
