This year we are continuing our Temple-wide learning initiative focused on mussar, or as we have labeled it, “Jewish values for everyday living.” Banners, similar to the graphic on this page, are being displayed throughout our TAE campus. Our teachers are integrating these values (middot) into the Early Childhood Center and Religious School curricula, adult mussar programs are being offered for all levels, special readings are being published in our Bazman and on our website, and our auxiliaries, committees, and boards are even engaging in this study and practice. Since bringing this tradition to TAE three years ago, we have witnessed a profound shift in how people engage with one another, connect with their Judaism, and grow as individuals. We hope that you too will join us in this transformative practice.

Thoughts and Questions Re: Humility and the movie "Hero"

In our Prayer book, Mishkan T’filah, it is said that, “I need strength, humility, courage, and patience. . . Humility to assess my own worth. . . .” Do the main characters in the movie change in their assessment of their own worth? What part does humility play in their change?
