Moshe Benovitz: Why Religious Change Doesn't Always Last [Teshuva 6/6]

This series is sponsored by Mira and Daniel Stokar.

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, recorded live at Stern College, we speak with Rabbi Moshe Benovitz, director of NCSY Kollel, about what makes religious change real and sustainable.

In this episode we discuss:

—What is the difference between behavior modification and personality development?
—How does one translate yeshiva skills to a life of kedusha?
—What is the value of being less emotionally reactive to criticism?

Tune in to hear a conversation about how we might do teshuva that lasts throughout the year and beyond.

Interview begins at 16:00.

Rabbi Moshe Benovitz has been the director of NCSY Kollel for over two decades. David Bashevkin considers him the “Lorne Michaels” of Jewish education.
