Rabbi Cosgrove: Taking Agency
What does it mean to take responsibility for our lives? From Genesis to September 11 to the confessions of Yom Kippur, Rabbi Cosgrove explores Judaism’s insistence that grievance never absolves us of agency, challenging us to stop asking who is to blame and start asking, What is mine to do?

‘Mareh Kohen’ (The Priest's Countenance)
In the Avodah service on Yom Kippur, we reenact the Kohen Gadol’s entry into the holiest part of the Temple. This piyyut tells that story in poetic language, using beautiful imagery to describe his radiant, joyful face. G’mar Hatimah Tovah – may you be inscribed in the Book of Life!
