The Kehillah RVA Podcast
Where community becomes conversation, and Judaism comes alive.
This podcast is your front door to KehillahโRichmond, Virginiaโs independent, progressive Jewish community. Through stories, spiritual insights, and moments of real connection, youโll get to know what makes Kehillah different: weโre not just a synagogueโweโre the Jewish home you always wanted.
Hosted by Rabbi Patrick Beaulier, each episode features reflections on Jewish wisdom, creative contributions from Kehillah members, and updates on how this radically welcoming community is inspiring people spiritually, intellectually, and socially.

The Kehillah RVA Podcast
The FREE SYNAGOGUE Movement
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Should Judaism be accessible before someone can afford it?
The Free Synagogue Movement was built around:
- A free pulpit
- Freedom of conscience
- No pew rentals
- No required dues
- Equality and social justice
And that's Kehillah.
At a time when many people feel disconnected from institutions, perhaps people are not looking for less community. Perhaps they are looking for a different kind of community. Let's talk about it.
