In 2013, Rabbi Sharon Brous gave a sermon in which she preached the need-in an era riven by loneliness, social alienation, polarization, and ideological extremism-to reclaim the simple act of showing up for one another. That day marked the beginning of an essential change in the community. Based on that original sermon, The Amen Effect dives into our fundamental human longing for connection-in our most intimate relationships, in our community, with strangers, perhaps with God. Faith and ritual are powerful vehicles for this kind of connection, but so is simply reaching out, showing up, being present when others needus most.
