Welcome back my friends to the Torah of Life podcast.

So glad to be back with you. It's been too long!

In this episode, I share with you where I've been, what I've been up to, and what I'm hoping to do going forward with this show. There are good things in store for this show in 2020 and beyond.

I shared a quote from Bahya ibn Pakuda, taken from Alan Morinis's Everyday Holiness, the Jewish Spiritual Path of Mussar (page 5):

I knew many good ideas were rejected because of fear, that dread causes a lot of damage, and I recalled the expression, "Be careful not to be too careful!" I realized that if everyone who ever resolved to do something good or instruct others in the path of righteousness kept still until he himself could accomplish everything he set out to, that nothing would have been said since the days of the prophets."

Ain't that the truth? Down with fear, up with changing the world!

Great to be back, have a listen to the show, and I'll see you again soon!

Happy New Year,

Rabbi Ilan
