The Power of One—Lessons from the Holocaust
For many Jews, Yom HaShoah, Israel’s Holocaust Remembrance Day, is deeply personal. It’s a day to remember one of the darkest times in history that resulted in the horrific murder of six million Jewish souls.But while Yom HaShoah is a somber day when the entire nation pauses to remember the lives lost at the hands of the Nazis, it’s also a time for all of us to remember the lessons from the Holocaust. And it’s a time when we renew the pledge that the Jewish people adopted after this catastrophic event: Never forget.Yet as Yael Eckstein reminds us, it is not enough to just remember; we also must take meaningful action. In today’s powerful podcast, Yael shares two valuable lessons we can learn from the Holocaust about the power of one—the value and importance of saving even one life and how even one person can make a tremendous impact in the world.

Passover—The Power of Asking Questions
One of the best ways to learn about something is to ask questions. In this special Passover episode, Yael Eckstein explains how the tradition of the Passover seder teaches us to ask questions. In fact, the telling of the Exodus story begins not with facts and explanations, but with questions.As Yael explains, this time-honored tradition of asking questions during Passover is an annual reminder that God wants us to be lifelong seekers. By asking God our questions and entering Passover with a spirit of curiosity, we are more open to learning, rediscovering, and recommitting to Him on our journey of faith, ultimately, growing ever closer to Him.Asking questions is a skill that we teach our children at Passover, but it’s an important skill that can help all of us, no matter our age. This episode will show us how!Learn more about the ancient and biblical celebration of Passover.And listen to more of Yael’s Bible teachings on her podcast, The Chosen People.
