Making Meaningful Summer Memories (S3, E36)

<p>This week on Judaism in the 21st Century, Rabbi Daniel Cohen and Dr. Steven Labkoff explore how summer can become more than a season of busyness.

Summertime and Judaism in the 21st Century

<p>This week on Judaism in the 21st Century, Steve Labkoff and Rabbi Daniel Cohen talk about how summer can be more than a pause in the Jewish calendar. After the intensity of Pesach, the Omer, and Shavuot, the slower months before Rosh Hashanah can become a powerful opportunity for spiritual growth, renewed purpose, and deeper connection.</p><p>Rabbi Cohen shares a practical “three-minute program” that anyone can begin today: one minute of prayer, one minute of learning, and one minute of reaching out to make a difference in someone’s life. Even better, stretch it to 15 minutes a day this summer and see how it changes the rhythm of your days.</p><p><br></p>
