The Holiness of Showing Up: A Shabbat Sermon on Nearness and Connection

In this special interfaith Shabbat sermon for Parashat Vayikra, Rabbi Adrian M. Schell reflects on the meaning of korban, often translated as “sacrifice”, and its deeper message of karov, nearness. What does it mean to truly draw close to one another, especially when it’s not easy? And how can small, quiet moments become sacred offerings in our daily lives? Join us for a heartfelt, joyful exploration of presence, vulnerability, and the holiness of showing up.
