In these times of excruciating cruelty, we must be comforted, educated and energized. We must fuel our spirits with knowledge to act with confidence and commitment.

In this weekly Torah study, we will gain insights on the power of microaffections to help us cope with adversity and effect change.

Rabbi Mike Moskowitz is an esteemed global thought leader, prolific writer, and dynamic educator of activism as spiritual practice.
