It looks like the world is going to Hell. So let's change it

Guest speaker Amanda Yaira Robinson's sermon delivered on July 22, 2012. The news is grim: war, hunger, poverty, global warming. Sometimes the scope of these challenges is overwhelming, and we wonder whether our efforts even matter. Jewish teachings remind us to focus on the distance between our experience of the world as it is and visions of what it could or should be. What do we do with these tensions? How can we bridge the distances? Today, we'll talk about possibility, transformation and what Karl Barth called an "uprising against the disorder of the world."
