Make Judaism Weird Again | Sukkot

Saison 1 · Épisode 19

lundi 6 octobre 2025 • Durée 23:48

Recovering from Yom Kippur with this kavanah (intention) to Make Judaism Weird Again! Because we can’t just hand people bagels and lox and expect commitment.

A few requests:

We need Metro RVA homes for Home Hosted Shabbat. If you have some space November 7 in the evening or November 8 in the morning, we’d appreciate the location
If you’re interested in adult education, reach out to rabbi@rabbipatrick.com to help create those opportunities
If you’d like to see us record on a more regular schedule, consider supporting us. Until then, you get what you get.

And of course, Chag Sameach! Happy Sukkot.

Returning to Kehillah (You Can Come Back!)

Saison 1 · Épisode 15

lundi 25 août 2025 • Durée 29:41

Did you know 10% of congregants (of all religions in the USA) will LEAVE their community at some point? That's normal!

But if you are someone who left, and you feel that tug at your heart to come back, and you're not sure how -- then this podcast episode is for you.

YOU CAN COME BACK! Inspired by the story of Joseph and some practical wisdom about the weirdness, awkwardness and emotionally tricky nature of going-then-coming-back, this podcast episode hopes to make you feel comfortable returning to your Jewish community.

Loving Your Neighbor, When You DON'T EVEN LIKE THEM

Saison 1 · Épisode 12

lundi 28 juillet 2025 • Durée 39:01

“Love your neighbor as yourself” is one of the most famous verses in the Torah. But what if your neighbor drives you crazy? What if you disagree about politics, values — or even reality?

In this episode, Rabbi Patrick explores what the Torah actually means by “love,” drawing on Leviticus 19, teachings from Rabbi Akiva, and wisdom from Pirkei Avot. You’ll learn how ancient Jewish values—like honoring others, subduing the ego, and treating the stranger as equal—can guide us through the fractured relationships of our time.

We also get practical: using Jedi-level communication tools like mirroring, labeling, and active listening, you’ll discover how to talk to people you don’t understand (or maybe even like) with curiosity instead of contempt.

💬 Whether you’re struggling with family tension, community division, or just trying to be a little more mensch-y, this episode gives you tools to do the work of loving your neighbor—starting with listening.

We Need To Talk About Corruption

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

lundi 21 juillet 2025 • Durée 47:11

Corruption isn’t just a political problem — it’s a human one.

Drawing on texts about bribery, justice, and moral courage, Rabbi Patrick helps us explore how unchecked corruption corrodes not only institutions but relationships and communities, and what it really takes to live a life of integrity, and to pursue justice the right way.

Because doing the right thing is never easy — but it’s always worth it.

You CAN Make Friends as an Adult

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

lundi 14 juillet 2025 • Durée 35:22

How do people make friends as adults?

In this episode of the Kehillah RVA Podcast, Rabbi Patrick explores why true, lasting friendships are so rare — and so essential — in our adult lives.

We’ll talk about:

Why adult friendships feel impossible sometimes
How to tell the difference between a true friend and a “frenemy”
What Balak and Balaam teach us about blessings and curses
How showing up for others creates more than connection — it creates life

Drawing on Parshat Balak (Numbers 22:2-25:9), he reflects on what it means to be a friend who delights in others’ blessings, and how choosing abundance over competition changes everything.

Whether you’re craving deeper connection, or trying to be a better friend yourself, this episode will inspire you to choose blessing — and friendship — every time.
