Rabbi Bravo's Sermons

Picture
Throughout the years, I have written hundreds of sermons and divrei Torah.
My content is based on our Torah text, the world, and my life.
I have always prided myself to incorporate that which is going on in the world around me, as well as what is happening to me in particular.  

I also speak in my sermons as the person I am, at that particular stage in my life.  If I have recently returned from Israel, I share my experiences.  If I am confronting certain issues as a parent or a woman, I incorporate these issues into the thoughts I share, and allow Jewish tradition to influence my thinking and hopefully the thinking of others.

On occasion, I take stands on issues that the Reform Movement and others whom I respect have made as a central platform for our world today.  I am always open to people's opinions and thoughts in response to my sermons, and I hope a sermon provides an opportunity to create dialogue regarding a certain topic.

Included in the sermons on this site are but a sampling of the various topics about which I have preached throughout the years.
