Mussar Introduction and the Middah of responsibility.

The best way to define Mussar biblically is the good advice that God gives:

"You be holy, because I am holy" 

Holiness doesn't feel intuitive to who we are, but the path of Mussar guides and helps us by giving us a map to the inner real you. Mussar "offers us a body of practices we can employ to transform our inner ways." (Everyday Holiness pg 17)

Considering some people in this space might be new to what this is all about, this event is an introduction. Serving to clarify what we are to do daily and weekly to practice our disciplines we are endeavoring to implement.

We will be covering:

1,) Chanting the mantra (hitpa'alut - "being moved") - the banner proverb italicized under each character trait in Part 2 of book Everyday Holiness. 

2.) Journaling (Chesbon ha'nefesh - "accounting of the soul") We need to measure the soul's progress. It will encourage you to see your steps to holiness taking root.

3.) Silence and retreat/ meditation (hitbonenut "contemplation"/ hitbodedut "seclusion")

I like to think of this as injecting a taste of the "Sabbath Peace"  into every day. Starting small (like 5 minutes) and when one is ready and able, gradually increase that seclusion and meditation time focusing on your inner self and its desired alignment to God.

We will have a wonderful time, connecting to Hashem as we draw closer to Him in the pursuit of holiness.

Please read pages 197-208 to understand the character trait of "Respnsibility" Achrayut prior to this event.

Passover Seder (night 2)

Passover at Shalom Macon is a meaningful celebration centered on redemption—a cornerstone of our faith as followers of Messiah Yeshua. Join us on Sunday, April 13th at 6:30 PM (the second night of Passover), as we retell the powerful story of Israel's deliverance from Egyptian bondage, and reflect on the deeper redemption we experience through Messiah.

Why attend a seder? Passover connects us directly to the roots of our faith and Yeshua’s own observance of this important feast. At Shalom Macon, our seder emphasizes the remarkable parallels between the redemption from Egypt and the redemption accomplished through Yeshua, helping us better appreciate the fullness of God's redemptive plan.

Shalom Macon warmly welcomes everyone to this special evening. We provide all seder essentials, including wine, juice, matzah, and each symbolic element of the seder plate. The seder meal features matzah ball soup, brisket, roasted vegetables, potatoes, and dessert.

Whether you're attending your first seder or enjoying a familiar tradition, join us as we celebrate the timeless story of redemption together.

Adults (13+): $20
Kids (4-12): $10
3 and younger: Free
Household Max: $80
