Rabbi Cosgrove: Aharei Mot-K’doshim: The Blame Game
Blame is easy; self-reflection is hard. Rabbi Cosgrove explores the instinct to deflect responsibility onto others and calls, in the spirit of Aharei Mot-K’doshim, for a turn inward, where critique begins with humility, responsibility, and the courage to examine oneself.

Between the Sacred and the Profane (Bein Kodesh l’Hol)
This song captures a central theme of parashah Emor: the responsibility to distinguish and sanctify time and actions. As we approach Lag BaOmer, each day becomes an opportunity to move, step by step, from the mundane to the holy. Like counting the Omer itself, the message of this song is gradual, intentional growth to transform each day into something sacred. Wishing you a Shabbat shalom.
