2025/26 Course Overview

 

 

We are proud to present to you this year’s JLI courses, and we invite you to join us for three courses that will inspire, educate, and fascinate you.

This year, we’ll get an in-depth look at Judaism’s advice for finding greater meaning in life. We’ll catch glimpses of our ancestors’ lives as we trace how our sages applied the Torah’s practices and ethics to an ever-changing world across history. We’ll explore Judaism’s universal message for all people, and how it can help us build better lives and societies.
