    As we enter a new year we are in a place of decision - like standing in Shechem, between Mount Gerizim and Ebal. In the coming year will you choose blessings or curses?

    BLESSINGS OR CURSES? There is a story about a mountain climber who wanted to climb the highest mountain. He began his adventure after many years of preparation. Since he wanted the glory just for himself, he decided to climb the mountain alone. The night felt heavy in the heights of the ...read more
