Alden Solovy – Standing at Sinai: Inheriting Redemption

Reaching Sinai, we receive our inheritance, the Torah. What do we take away from Sinai, the raison d’etre for our redemption from Egypt? Rights? Responsibilities? Laws? Advice? Is this inheritance perpetual or does it need to be earned in each generation? What is the promise of redemption? Join Liturgist Alden Solovy as we seek our own answers to these questions, with conversation and a six-word prayer writing experience.

Alden Solovy spreads joy and excitement for prayer. A liturgist and poet, his work has been used by people of many faiths throughout the world. He’s written more than 750 pieces of new liturgy, offering a fresh Jewish voice, challenging the boundaries between poetry, meditation, personal growth, storytelling and prayer. He’s a teacher, a writing coach and an award-winning essayist and journalist. Alden is the 2019-2020 Liturgist-in-Residence at the Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies.
