    Lesson 3

    RACHEL
    Mother of Devotion
    The Limits of Sacrifice

    Humans are primed for self-preservation, not to sacrifice their interests or assets for others. Does Judaism expect us to make such sacrifices, and if so, to what degree? This lesson analyzes the life of our Matriarch Rachel, for inspiration and guidance on the value of acting altruistically.

    Lesson 4

    ABIGAIL
    Affection in Direction
    Rebuking with Love and Respect

    Life includes being redirected and redirecting others. This lesson probes the story of Abigail, a wise woman who rebuked a king, to reveal the empathetic motivation underlying her rebuke and to discover Judaism's secret of successful intervention and redirection.

    Lesson 5

    ESTHER
    Resource-fullness
    Using Every Resource for G-d's Purpose

    Talent, time, funds, friendship, position, personality are our resources truly ours? Which of them does Judaism expect us to devote to a higher purpose, and to what extent? This lesson consults Queen Esther; her answers guide us toward a comprehensively meaningful existence.

    Lesson 6

    BATYA
    Against the Tide
    Acting Morally in an Immoral Society

    Judaism promotes cohesiveness and community, but not if the result is morally repugnant. It can be incredibly difficult to resist social or peer pressure. This lesson analyzes a moment in the life of heroic Princess Batya, providing us with tangible tools for handling such pressure.
