Description

Rabbi Josh Feigelson explores the Fourth Commandment—“Do not take God’s name in vain”—and what it teaches us about speech, truth, and mindful living. From his days as a Boy Scout to Jewish mystical practices, Josh connects personal stories with ancient wisdom to help us speak with more clarity, compassion, and Divine purpose. You’ll also learn a unique mindfulness exercise inspired by the shofar to deepen your intention and integrity in everyday speech.
