My friend Rabbi Alon Joseph sounds off about the impact of instilling positive values, both in a business and home environment.

When I invited Doron to my podcast, I thought we were going to spend a lot of time talking about security issues and current affairs. Well, we did...but we talked much more about his personal back-story, and his work to influence the Christian world to support Israel and the Jewish people in every way possible. We could have talked forever, and there's so much more I want to explore with him.If you want to find out more about Doron, his website is doronkeidar.com.
