DECISIONS OF FATE
Navigating Critical Choices & Ethical Dilemmas with Jewish Wisdom

Join Rabbi Henoch Rosenfeld for riveting discussions on timeless matters. Each week, we put one area of Jewish law under the microscope and explore its rationale, relevance, and practical application. As we proceed, a complete vision of the mysticism, the beauty, and the richness of divinely inspired life will emerge.
