Parshat Vayera: God promises, Sarah delivers. Abraham pleads for Sodom and Gomorah, God denies his plea. Listening to Sarah, Abraham banishes his son Ishmael and his mother Hagar. Abraham is tested on Mount Moriah.
Lots of conflict and familial strife here. Come wrestle with it, in community.
Parshat Va’era.

“But when Moses told this to the Israelites, they would not listen to Moses, their spirits crushed by cruel bondage” Exodus/Shemot 6:9
