By most indications, modern society is a model of moral progress. Yet when it comes to everyday values, we still grapple with the big ones… 

- What are our responsibilities toward the less fortunate? 

- How do we fashion a more moral and equal society? 

- How can we make a move toward more cohesive family living? 

Join Rabbi Yonatan Hambourger to unpack six of the world’s most cherished values and how they were delivered to humankind by the Torah (The Old Testament.) By tracing their fascinating journey to the mainstream, we’ll discover a timeless core of purpose, integrity, and clarity in each value—a powerful gift of guidance as we navigate our own daily choices.
