Christmas.

Hanukkah.

These may seem like opposing holiday traditions, but they are rooted in the same hope:

That we may find a light in the darkness.

In this episode, I bring my Rabbi with me once again to discuss how an understanding of Jewish history & Hanukkah can illuminate the power we have to live nobly despite even the most adverse circumstances.

After Rabbi Shreibman is done, I take a deep dive into the essence of Christmas as a time to celebrate Immanuel, or “God With Us.”

Finally, we end with some Q&A from our live audience.

It’s gets real.

We discuss the feeling of God’s absence.

We attempt to answer how polarizing religion can be.

&

Much more…

If you or someone you love is searching for a deeper meaning to the holiday season, feeling apathetic or overwhelmed by loss and darkness, then this episode is for you.
