In this episode, Rabbi Ben explores two teachings from the Degel Machaneh Ephraim about how spiritual transformation unfolds. Every action becomes a stone: one act leads to another until, almost without noticing, we have built a mountain. Teshuvah, prayer, and generosity offer ways to change direction by laying down different stones.
The episode also considers what happens when Torah becomes more than information—when study becomes relationship, and wisdom begins to flow like a living well from within. The question is less whether today’s practice changed your life than: What stone did you place today? Because mountains are built that way. So are souls.
