Thursday, June 15, 2017 • 21 Sivan 5777
7:00 PM - 8:00 PM
What if we read the books we love as if they were sacred texts? What would we learn? How might they change us? Harry Potter and the Sacred Text is a podcast reading the best-selling series of all time in search of universal wisdom and personal meaning.
Harvard chaplains Vanessa Zoltan and Casper ter Kuile read one chapter a week, approaching J.K. Rowling's beloved novels as instructive and inspirational texts that will teach us about our own lives.
Join the successful Boston-based podcast for a live reading in the Sherith Israel sanctuary, part of an epic 199-episode journey.
