The Seven Questions You’re Asked in Heaven
Study text, share stories, and explore potential questions you’ll be asked in heaven.
We are delighted to offer this class for free. But to ensure we can keep making Jewish education accessible at no charge, will you make the suggested donation of $36 (or more, if you are so moved)? Thank you for your generosity!
When you get to heaven, what questions do you think you’ll be asked about how you lived your life on earth? In the Talmud and through the centuries, rabbis have imagined what these questions might be. In this challenging, poignant, and humorous four-session course, we’ll study text, share stories, and explore the concept of cheshbon ha-nefesh, a spiritual accounting of the soul.
This class meets the following Mondays at noon:

Question 1: What Will You Be Asked? The concept of cheshbon ha-nefesh and the first question you’ll be asked in heaven (it’s a surprise!)
