17. Rabbi Steve Leder: What Makes Life Meaningful? Hope Still Wins with Ben Higgins
-
- Society & Culture
Rabbi Steve Leder is the Senior Rabbi of Wilshire Boulevard Temple in Los Angeles (one of the largest synagogues in the world!!) and the author of multiple books including his most recent release, The Beauty of What Remains.
In this conversion, Rabbi Steve and Ben talk about Judaism as a set of behaviors, the real enemy of religion and faith, how death makes life meaningful, and the non-linear nature of grief- something Rabbi Leder came to know after his father lost a 10-year battle to Alzheimer’s. They discuss the role of religion and how important it is that now, more than ever, we nurture our spirituality and lean on the teachings that supported those who came before us.
