A 12 week study on the book “The Sacred Art of Loving Kindness” by Rabbi Rami Shapiro.
Open your heart and mind and discover―through the sacred art of lovingkindness―the image and likeness of God in yourself and others.
The question at the heart of this book is this: Will you engage this moment with kindness or with cruelty, with love or with fear, with generosity or scarcity, with a joyous heart or an embittered one? This is your choice and no one can make it for you…. Heaven and hell are both inside of you. It is your choice that determines just where you reside.
―from the Introduction
We are all born in the image of God, but living out the likeness of God is a choice. This inspiring, practical guidebook provides you with the tools you need to realize the divinity within yourself, recognize the divinity within others, and act on the obligation to manifest God’s infinite compassion in your own life.
Explore Judaism’s Thirteen Attributes of Lovingkindness as the framework for cultivating a life of goodness.
Rabbi Shapiro translates these attributes into practices―drawn from the teachings of a variety of faith traditions―that allow you to actualize God’s glory through personal deeds of lovingkindness.
In this book study, enrich your own capacity for lovingkindness as you:
- Harvest kindness through compassionate honesty
- Make room in your heart for reality
- Recognize the manifestations of God
- Embrace the paradoxical truth of not-knowing
- Be present in the moment
- Do right by others
The book is available on Amazon and copies are also available in our newly renovated Bookstore.
