Description

We live in a culture that encourages us to live in the moment and forget about tomorrow. In contrast, the Bible taught humanity that societies are strongest when they’re willing to think in long time horizons. When we’re willing to see ourselves as just one moment on a long continuum from past to future -- from our great-grandparents, to our great-grandchildren — we’re able to invest in society’s long-term health. Have we forgotten this in America? Are there those who still remember? And either way, how can we recover this sense of long term thinking for the next generation? This week Rabbi Lamm spoke about all this with the incomparable Jonathan Silver, Editor of Mosaic, and host of the Tikvah Podcast.

The Hebrew Bible is every bit America’s moral founding document as the Constitution is our political founding document. Every week, Rabbi Dr. Ari Lamm, speaks with thinkers, writers, artists, and faith leaders to explore how the Bible continues to inform our lives today, from politics to psychology to pop culture, bringing Americans of different traditions and persuasions closer together as so much else threatens to pull us apart.
