High Holidays should be what you need them to be.

A chance to hear thoughtful, compelling perspectives on the most important questions in life; a chance to ask yourself those questions, too; tradition illuminated in a way that is clear, understandable, and invites you in; a place that makes space for your ambivalence about God, but that also fills your deep need to connect to something greater than yourself. Renew is a High Holiday service, but turned inside out: more sharing of ideas than words in a language you might not understand; more chances to ask questions than to turn pages.

Led by Rabbi Scott Perlo and Elana Brody, Renew brings new voices to your High Holidays: comics, writers, artists, philosophers, and you, sharing answers to questions that every person needs to ask, but rarely has the time for.
