#079: Repentance & Repair with Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg
Episode 83
Friday, 13 March, 2026
This week on The God Squad, Dillon Naber Cruz and Desimber Rose sit down with Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg, the acclaimed Jewish scholar and author of On Repentance and Repair: Making Amends in an Unapologetic World. In a time when public apologies are often little more than PR damage control, Rabbi Ruttenberg brings ancient Jewish wisdom to a modern crisis of accountability. Drawing from the teachings of the medieval philosopher Maimonides, Rabbi Ruttenberg explains what real repentance actually requires—truth-telling, repair of harm, and meaningful transformation—not just empty words. Together, Dillon and Desimber explore how these principles apply not only to personal relationships but also to public life, politics, institutions, and faith communities. If you’ve ever wondered what genuine accountability looks like in a culture that often avoids it, this conversation offers both challenge and hope. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
