The Jewish Story Podcasts with Peter Mond
In each audio Peter weaves a unique tapestry of Jewish stories taken from diverse sources - Hasidic stories; Holocaust stories; Stories from Ancient and Modern Israel; and Personal Meaning stories. By telling stories we continue the chain of narrators, some 3,500 years old. We light a warm fire of tales and teachings about how Jews have struggled and overcome suffering, darkness, emptiness and loneliness. Exploring the nature of human beings and their quest for meaning, the stories reveal the essence of the Jewish Story - the meeting between human beings and the Divine in everyday life.
