Description

A shiur "be-inyana de-yoma" presented on December 25, exploring the practical hashkafic impact of our unique emuna. Recognizing and rejecting the false dichotomies that Western thought often assumes, and what we reject about C. S. Lewis's "Screwtape Letters". [As becomes clear, the word 'Rift' in the title is no typo, but rather an intended riff on Gift.]
