The Chassidic Story Project with Barak Hullman - A Chassidic Story Every Week
Be a part of the Chassidic Story Project where I'll be bringing hundreds of Chassidic stories back to life through my podcast broadcast direct from the holy city of Jerusalem.
Chassidic stories are like a niggun (Chassidic melody); they can touch a person's soul without understanding how or why. These stories transcend all boundaries and denominations. They are pure, simple and deeply Jewish. This is wholesome Jewish content for the whole family.
