Lesson Description

Terumah, which translates as "contribution", means more than just stretching our pocket book.  It means making an effort from the heart.  Eitan calls on us to chase after Light no matter what the cost, reminding us that it is such devotion that keeps the righteous among us and allows us to truly be a dwelling place for the Light. We are called to be accountable for maintaining healthy vessels for every area in our life where we want to experience blessing and fulfillment.
