Reversing Tisha B’Av: How To Actually Rid Ourselves Of Sinat Chinam
Is there such a thing as purposeful mourning? How do we channel our pain and anguish productively, without allowing it to consume us or others? This video series, originally created for Tisha B’av, has a new, heartbreaking relevance in our post-October 7 world. Join Rabbi Fohrman as he explores these pivotal questions through the lens of Rachel, the mother of our people. Watch to discover what Rachel’s story can teach us about the power of mourning as a catalyst for growth — on Tisha B’Av and every day of the year.
