10 Foundational Practices: Prayer (Part 1 of 10)

In this special episode, Rabbi Marcus and Rachel Rubenstein kick off a brand-new mini-series exploring 10 foundational practices for living out your Judaism. First up: Prayer.

What does it mean to really pray — not just recite words, but connect? The Rubensteins dive into the heart of tefillah, sharing personal stories, spiritual insights, and practical guidance for building a meaningful prayer life, whether you're a daily davener or just beginning to explore the siddur.

From ancient texts to modern struggles with focus, from the structure of the Amidah to finding your own voice in conversation with the Divine — this episode sets the tone for a transformative journey into embodied Jewish living.

Tune in and take the first step with us.
