Listen "Rav Kook's 3 Steps to Teshuva That Will Change You this Year"
Episode Synopsis
This episode is not just for Grandparents. EVERYONE will benefit from this perspective shift, as we finish Rosh Hashana and face the New Year. Many of us think of teshuva (repentance) as heavy, guilt-filled, or narrowly about fixing our wrongs. But Rav Kook, in his masterwork Orot HaTeshuva (Lights of Repentance), offers a radically different vision: teshuva is the pulse of life itself, a return to our deepest, Divine selves, a universal force of spiritual growth, and a joyful awakening that brings light to the world. In this episode, we’ll discuss:
Why Rav Kook saw teshuva as a source of joy, not guilt
The personal and cosmic dimensions of return
How teshuva connects to family, legacy, and passing on values
What it means to see teshuva as a path of hope and creativity
