Dear friend,
We’re excited to launch Crossroads Cards, a new M² resource designed to help individuals and groups navigate real-life dilemmas where values collide and the right path isn’t obvious – when you find yourself standing at a crossroads.
Each Crossroads Card begins with a short, real-life scenario that leads to a moment of choice. It then offers a Jewish Compass – two Jewish texts or historical moments that bring the tension in the dilemma into focus. The cards end with a Core Question which extends beyond the specific situation and invites reflection on the values shaping our choices.
Without offering answers, the cards slow us down and help surface what matters most.
Below you'll find 3 ways to engage with Crossroads Cards.
Take a closer look: Preview this sampling of Crossroads Cards and explore the different themes, dilemmas, and conversations that they spark.
When is it necessary to challenge a falsehood directly, and when does a new approach lead to a stronger impact?
When does commitment to our convictions call us to stand apart, and when does commitment to community call us to stay?
When does protecting someone from the truth help them, and when does it prevent genuine connection?
How do we show up for someone when their needs conflict with what we believe will help? When should we push forward, and when should we let go?
