The Priests and the Politics of Perfection - Rabbi Scott Gellman
Monday, 4 May, 2026
Rabbi Gellman just returned from the One America Movement’s interfaith summit in Chicago — three days at a table with pastors, imams, and Hindu leaders all working to fight toxic polarization through faith. He came home with more questions than answers, four new coffee dates, and one surprising realization: his Muslim and Christian neighbors might be more comfortable with prayer than many Jews are. Drawing on Parashat Emor and the neuroscience of belonging, this sermon explores the gap between because Judaism says and because my faith tells me to — and the courage it takes to show up as your full Jewish self before you can ask anyone else to meet you there.
