S1E2 - David Kaufman

Welcome to the Aseret Podcast, where we learn about character, kindness, wisdom, and values from living examples of inspiring people, based on the ethical and moral vision of the Ten Commandments or the Aseret HadDibrot.

In this week's episode, I speak with David Kaufman about the Second Dibber and its relationship with the world of addiction.

David is a warm and outgoing Canadian Certified Addictions Counselor, running groups and supporting individuals who struggle with all types of addictions. He works at JACS Toronto, the Jewish Addiction Counselling Service. Click HERE to donate.

I learned a lot from David.

He taught me that at its core, the addict is often trying to fill "a hole the size of God." It is not about the 'drug of choice', as he calls it, but about the deeper purposes and function it serves. For many, the journey of recovery involves filling that hole with "meaning, spirituality, Godliness, holiness."

Join our conversation and learn about how addiction relates to this second Dibber and how we can all learn to find God in all the right places.

Thanks for listening; we hope you enjoy it and find it meaningful. Please like and subscribe, wherever you may be listening.
