4/2/23 Prototype: Acceptance

Homily from Palm Sunday of the Lord's Passion.

Jesus' secret is voluntary and radical acceptance.

In His final moments on earth, our Rabbi teaches us one of the greatest lessons of Bet Midrash: how do we face the worst possible realities of life? Do we resist reality? Do we avoid addressing what scares us? Or do we do what Jesus did? Do we choose voluntary and radical acceptance?
