episode Rabbi Deren: Four Here, Four in Heaven cover

Rabbi Deren: Four Here, Four in Heaven

In the season finale, host Amanda Spiro speaks with Rabbi Yisrael Deren, who together with his wife Vivy has faced the unimaginable — the loss of four of their eight children. Instead of retreating into grief, they chose to transform their pain into purpose, becoming a source of strength and comfort for others walking through darkness. Rabbi Deren shares deeply personal stories, from turning a hospital room into a place of joy to hearing his child cry out, “This golus stinks.” With honesty and faith, he reflects on how each loss reshaped their lives, the blessings that sustained them, and the small “drop of faith” that carried them forward.This is not only a story about grief, but about resilience, community, and the eternal bond between parent and child. Rabbi Deren offers hard-won wisdom on finding G-d in life’s darkest corners, transforming loneliness into connection, and discovering meaning even in the depths of pain. As he movingly says, “We have eight children, four here and four in heaven. And they’re still shining.”

Let’s do this.” With strength and clarity, she rallied her community with Tehillim, acts of tzedakah, and unwavering trust in God’s plan.Marylyn’s story is one of resilience, love, and the choice to see life’s challenges as blessings in disguise.

Morgan’s Story: A Caregivers Journey

In this episode of Hand in Hand, we sit down with Morgan Buchsbaum, a woman who radiates joy despite having navigated immense loss and challenges. Morgan shares her deeply personal journey as the primary caregiver for her mother, who was diagnosed with terminal stage 4 glioblastoma and given only six months to live. Her world, already deeply intertwined with her mother's as an only child of a single parent, came crashing down during the COVID-19 pandemic. Morgan recounts the extraordinary circumstances of getting married by her mother's bedside and her transformative experience at the mikvah, which brought unexpected spirituality, community, and peace during an overwhelmingly dark time. Following her mother's passing just four days after the wedding, Morgan grappled with overwhelming depression and the loss of her identity as a full-time caregiver. She found purpose and healing by leaning into her Jewish faith and community, working at the Friendship Circle, and eventually having a daughter, Esther, named after her beloved mother. This episode explores resilience, finding meaning in grief, the importance of self-care for caregivers, and the profound impact of the Torah and Mitzvot in life's most challenging moments. Join Amanda and Morgan as they delve into a story that beautifully blends personal struggle with universal truths and timeless Jewish wisdom, illuminating paths to connection and hope even when surrounded by darkness.

She discusses finding unshakable trust in God (bitachon), the surprising lessons of her healing process, and the immeasurable support of a community that showed up when she needed it most.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
