  • Wonderful!

    I get excited every time I see that something new has been uploaded. I genuinely enjoy listening to Rabbi Cain's sermons. They're though-provoking, human, sensitive, compassionate, and powerful. I'm not Jewish, but Rabbi Cain makes me wish I was. I would love to have him as my Rabbi.
