The Shofar Wake-up Call
Update: 2025-09-09
Description
In this week’s special Elul episode, we study a text from Maimonides’ Mishneh Torah on Repentance that explores the shofar’s role as a spiritual wake-up call. We discuss how the shofar calls us to set aside our normal preoccupations with vanities and focus on what is most important in life. We see a powerful parallel in the moments of clarity within the climate movement—often sparked by climate disasters—that serve as clarion calls for us to focus on the big picture and take meaningful action.
