Episode Details

In this episode of Jewish Crossroads, host Tamar Ish Shalom sits down with Rabbi Sharon Brous, founder and senior rabbi of IKAR, a prominent Jewish community in Los Angeles, and one of the most influential voices in American Jewish life. 

Tamar and Rabbi Brous explore the importance of community, the power of human connection, and the role of Jewish wisdom in helping us navigate an increasingly fractured world. From the challenges of modern Jewish life and antisemitism to the enduring human need for belonging. This is a thoughtful conversation about faith, compassion, the relationship between Israel and the American diaspora and Israel's upcoming elections.
