The Amen Effect: Rabbi Sharon Brous in Conversation with Adam Davis
Sunday, March 15, 2026
4:30 PM - 6:00 PM
In Person
Lincoln Performance Hall (1620 SW Park Ave)
In a time of loneliness and isolation, social rupture and alienation, what will it take to mend our broken hearts and rebuild our society? Join one of our country’s most prominent rabbis, Sharon Brous, for a conversation about her bestselling book The Amen Effect: Ancient Wisdom to Heal our Heart and Mend our Broken World with Oregon Humanities director Adam Davis.
This program will explore what it means to rebuild trust, belonging, and moral responsibility in a time of isolation and alienation, and how shared ritual, presence, and community can become acts of repair. Drawing on Jewish tradition, lived pastoral experience, and contemporary civic life, The Amen Effect reframes connection not as a luxury, but as a human necessity—one that requires showing up for one another in moments of joy, grief, and uncertainty. The conversation will consider how these ideas resonate far beyond religious spaces, offering insight for anyone concerned with the health of our civic and communal life.
General admission is $18 with reduced-cost tickets available upon request. VIP tickets are $75 and include a private pre-event reception with Rabbi Brous, a copy of The Amen Effect, and reserved seating within Lincoln Hall.
