Lech Lecha: Responding to Life’s Challenges

When life throws us challenges and doesn’t go the way we hoped, how do we avoid falling into despair? 

In Parshat Lech Lecha, Abraham and Sarah struggle with infertility, and Abraham cries out to God, “I am childless!” What is the Torah’s message to Abraham on how to persevere through life’s trials and tribulations?

Join Rabbi David Fohrman and Ari Levisohn as they explore Abraham and Sarah’s journey through difficult times and the Torah’s encouraging guidance.

Listen to Rabbi Fohrman’s foundational course, Abraham’s Journey, to dive deeper into the ideas discussed in this episode.
