Join Rabbi Will Hall at Temple Beth Shalom for a heartfelt Rosh Hashanah sermon on finding gratitude amid life’s noise.
In this teaching, Rabbi Hall shares a humorous and profound story about a man overwhelmed by the chaos of his home. Through the guidance of his rabbi, he discovers that the very sounds he once found annoying—the laughter of children, the singing of his wife, even Grandma’s snoring—can become sources of gratitude and joy.
Key themes include:
-Recognizing the blessings in everyday life, even amid chaos.
-Learning to shift perspective from complaint to appreciation.
-Finding gratitude in family, community, and daily life.
-Practical Jewish wisdom for approaching the new year with thankfulness.
Rabbi Hall’s story reminds us that Rosh Hashanah isn’t just about self-improvement—it’s about seeing and celebrating the blessings around us.
