Changing the Algorithm
Shabbat sermon
The social media algorithm quietly shapes what we see and believe by feeding us content based on our behavior, often trapping us in narrow bubbles. But it only controls us if we let it—we can intentionally change what it shows us by seeking out new and unfamiliar voices. Ultimately, the message is to step outside our digital algorithms and instead live by deeper values, like those found in Torah and Shabbat, which guide us toward awareness, balance, and freedom.
