God’s Marbles
By acting as partners in redemption, we not only generate hope, we are hope.
|
| Matti Friedman
Looking for Hope in the Land of Hatikva:
“Like all of my friends, I tried not to let terror destroy my routine or crack my sanit. When I looked up I realized that none of us really had any optimism left.”

| Carol Grosman
Inspiring Stories
Through these stories, “I have witnessed countless examples of resilience, strength, humor, devotion to justice, love, kindness, generosity, trust and potential for change and transformation. The capacity of the human spirit to transcend adversity inspired me.”

Quote of
the Month
|
|
|
|
| ”The current settlement debate is really
about different sorts of love, each of which is not
only legitimate but critical: Love of the Land, and
Love of the State. To oversimplify: The settlers love
the land more. Those who want to withdraw love the
State more.” Daniel Gordis
