ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Mark Wildes was well on his way to joining his father, a renowned immigration attorney, when he found his life's calling: reaching out to unaffiliated young professional Jews in Manhattan, and innovating for decades in the outreach space. Unique as a proudly Modern Orthodox practitioner, Rabbi Wildes offers a different perspective, which we discuss and evaluate in this episode.

We also speak about his new "40 day challenge" - the subject of his latest book - and his other writings, along with his rich family history and dreams for the future of outreach.
