Summary: <p>A rabbi once heard about a preacher who gained notoriety by giving the world’s <em>longest</em> sermon. Not wanting to duplicate that feat, and, perhaps more importantly, not wanting to put everyone in shul to sleep, the rabbi decided to preach the world’s <em>shortest</em> sermon instead.</p> <p>In the weeks leading up to the holidays, he shared the big news with the congregation in e-blasts, social media, and in person. Come to shul – and hear the shortest sermon ever! Sitting down to write, though, he realized the task was harder than it sounded. How to say something meaningful, something impactful, something true, while at the same time making it short? As Rosh Hashanah drew closer and closer, he found himself living iconic mathematician Blaise Pascal’s words that he would have written a shorter letter, but he didn’t have enough time.</p> <p>Follow this link to the view the sermon on our website <a href="https://www.templeemanuel.com/rabbi/rabbi-michelle-robinson/love-2/">https://www.templeemanuel.com/rabbi/rabbi-michelle-robinson/love-2/</a></p>
