Author and Rabbi Michael Lerner will be speaking at St. James Episcopal Church on February 26th about his new book, Embracing Isreal/Palestine. Lerner emphasizes that a new approach to the issue requires giving
primacy to love, kindness, and generosity. It calls for challenging the
master narratives in both Israel and Palestine as well as the idea
that “homeland security” can be achieved through military, political,
economic, or media domination. His presentation at St. James at 11:30AM on February 26th is sure to be insightful, inspiring, and thought-provoking.
