In the context of his 50th birthday coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the Six Day War and Israel's Occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, Rabbi Mo reflects on his own complex relationship with the State of Israel.
On his 50th birthday, Rabbi Mo talks about why he does what he does.
The audio begins a few minutes into this sermon, in which Rabbi Mo discusses how we may approach challenging moments (like the current historical one). He introduces a teaching from Viktor Frankl, who teaches us "Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom."
Rabbi Mo speaks about how we occupy the spaces in our relationships.
