  • Moving and beautiful

    As a man who has been in the process of converting to Judaism for years… for me, a very long process… I never thought I’d be envious of two incarcerated men. But after listening to this beautiful story, here I am. Mozel Yov to Ari and Josh! Many thanks to Amy, Marvin and Mariam for opening the gates!

    Oh my goodness, I’m completely hooked already. I heard the first episode and had to keep going. I can’t wait for the rest of the series to drop. I have been feeling a bit dry, lifeless, burned out in my spiritual life and Jewish learning, and listening to this series has reinvigorated my soul with energy and inspiration. I feel like I’m right there in the room with these folks, and it brings up crucial questions about belonging, worthiness, enoughness, calling. I highly recommend listening and f... more
