Shabbat Sermon: Momentum That Comes and Goes vs. Momentum That Grows and Grows with Rabbi Wes Gardenswartz




From the Bimah: Jewish Lessons for Life show

Summary: <p>It is the best of times, it is the worst of times.</p> <p>It is the best of times: David Rosemberg’s Bar Mitzvah.  David radiates joy, and that joy fills our congregation.</p> <p>It is the worst of Times.  The Red Sox.  The Red Sox’s utter collapse.  We win games 2 and 3 in historic fashion, and then lose the next three games.  What is that?</p> <p>These two events, the joy of David’s Bar Mitzvah, and the anguish of the Red Sox collapse, have something very important in common, and it is something that we don’t talk about enough: momentum. Momentum is the strength or force that gathers and grows when something is moving in the right direction.</p>
