“In the beginning, God created…” — We’ve heard these words, but what do they really mean for our lives today? How can an ancient creation-story open up fresh spiritual possibilities in a world of change and complexity?

In this three-part mini-course, we’ll journey into the opening verses of the Torah through the lens of Hasidic and neo-Hasidic wisdom. Each session delves into a powerful 18th-century Hasidic interpretation of the words “In the beginning” to uncover themes of Divine Presence, human empowerment, and spiritual joy. Then we’ll bring the tradition into the present, exploring how neo-Hasidic voices re-imagine these insights for a contemporary progressive Judaism.

Whether you’re drawn to mystical depth, modern relevance, or the intersection of both — this course invites you to begin again, ask bold questions, and re-imagine creation as a sacred space for spiritual awakening and communal possibility.
