Words Of Hope Thursday, September 16 - a podcast by Cathedral of Hope UCC

The devotion for today, Thursday, September 16 was written by Dr. Pat Saxon and is narrated by Larry Carter.

Today’s Words of Inspiration come from Abraham Joshua Heschel: Prayer is meaningless unless it is subversive, unless it seeks to overthrow and ruin the pyramids of callousness, hatred, opportunism, falsehoods. A liturgical movement must become a revolutionary movement seeking to overthrow the forces that destroy the promise, the hope, the vision.

Resources mentioned in today's devotion:

Rabbi Michael Lerner and the Tikkun community offer a progressive and full litany of communal sins and encourage participation by anyone who would have a clean heart and right spirit. https://www.tikkun.org/for-the-sins-a-contemporary-version-of-atonement-on-yom-kippur-and-all-year-round/
Consider participating in Yom Kippur services on line at a local synagogue or at Central Synagogue, speaking together the way we miss the mark, being inspired by a thoughtful sermon, and moved by the kol nidre (here sung when Rabbi Angela Buchwald was cantor) www.youtube.com/watch?v=-C-8f_SoNqg.
