Why did God choose Abraham—and what does that choice say about us? In this powerful teaching, Rabbi Damian explores Abraham’s bold dialogue with God over Sodom and what it reveals about true righteousness and justice. Was Abraham simply obedient, or did God want something more—a partner in repairing the world? Discover how Abraham’s test becomes our own: to seek the righteous even among those we oppose, to challenge injustice with humility, and to live as children of Avraham Avinu. Are we willing to wrestle with God for the sake of mercy?
