ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Rabbi Louis Sachs explores the idea that love, faith, and our truest selves are not things we need to create—they are already within us, waiting to be uncovered. Drawing on Parashat Vaetchanan, the V'ahavta, the teachings of the Sefat Emet, Shabbat Nachamu, and the meaning of teshuva, the sermon invites listeners to look beyond the stress, grief, and distractions that can obscure who they were created to be—and to return to the person God created them to be.
Delivered on Shabbat morning, July 25, 2026.
Torah Outside the Box is a podcast where Rabbi Louis Sachs shares sermons, stories, and reflections that bring Torah beyond the walls of the synagogue. Thoughtful, heartfelt, and occasionally a little provocative, each episode explores how Jewish wisdom speaks to modern life—because Torah belongs not just in the synagogue, but in our lives.
