Rabbi Brous is a gifted and compassionate spiritual leader. She communicates her passion for Judaism while also demonstrating compassion for anyone, regardless of religion. I am hooked on her sermons and use them to add depth to the sermons of my own Rabbi.
So grateful for IKAR
These sermons and classes teach me so much and help put into words and context my own personal moral view. The Rabbis are all smart, interesting and challenging!
I’m a shy Jew. Raised in a home where my Judaism was hidden. I’m no longer in that closet. But still shy. That’s to say I attend temple on this podcast. Xxxx
