Elul Thoughts

The month of Elul is a time of reflection and spiritual preparation leading into the High Holy Days. Each day, Reform clergy and educators from across North America share brief teachings and meditations—known as Elul Thoughts—to help inspire introspection, renewal, and growth. This year’s theme, Makhloket l'shem Shamayim (“argument for the sake of Heaven”), invites us to explore how meaningful dialogue can bring us closer to ourselves, to one another, and to God. Read the daily Elul Thoughts here.
