Release and Renewal: Seeing with Mountaintop Eyes | May 25, 2025 | Rabbi Daniel Weiner

What practices—spiritual or practical—help you resist systems that define people by wealth, productivity, or success?

In a world that runs on exhaustion, profit, and performance, Rabbi Daniel Weiner brings a timely and powerful word: We were never meant to live this way.

Drawing from the ancient Jewish practices of Shmita and Jubilee—sacred pauses for the land, for laborers, and for debtors—Rabbi Weiner calls us to imagine a different kind of world. One where the land gets to rest. One where people are freed from systems that dehumanize them. One where every person is treated with sacred worth.
