The devastating Southern California wildfires in early 2025 destroyed hundreds of residences and businesses. Lives were upended with the rebuilding for some still underway. Today’s guest is Rabbi Daniel Sher, who along with his fellow clergy and congregants at Kehillat Israel in Pacific Palisades saw his family destroyed by the flames. Miraculously, the synagogue was spared any damage and has served as an oasis for those in need, both materially and spiritually. Rabbi Sher shares with us the impact of traumatic loss and how resilience and hope is helping his family and so many others cope.
