It is refreshing, inspiring, and brief as well. When you need a quick lift in your day listen to Hadar institute
This is my favorite Jewish podcast. Hadar makes such great content. I grew up in the Reform tradition and drifted away from Judaism as a young adult. Now I’m trying to reconnect and Hadar has been a great resource!
Rabbi Kaunfer’s shiur on Vayigash of Judah’s drawing near to Joseph as a whisper as in the daily Amidah is profound and moving. In drawing near to G-d through our prayer and words of daily Amidah may we achieve achieve a whisper of echad. Well done.
If the format was a sermon or a shiur it would be far better in my opnion. Hearing an essay being read to me is sub-optimal.
Love Yitz Greenberg.
Wish there was more content than once a week.
Any more Shai Held, Ethan tucker etc?
