Sometimes they look like a leaf revealing its hidden colors, a story that outflanks your resistance, or a single choice to see, hear, say, and do something beautiful before the day is done.In this episode, Barry sits down with Rabbi Michael Zedek, author of Taking Miracles Seriously, to explore a grounded, story-driven spirituality that doesn’t demand perfection, certainty, or even one “right” interpretation. Together, they unpack why humor opens us up, how sacred texts can be truer as metaphor than as history, and what it means to live like life is precious, even when it’s hard.You’ll also hear the origin story behind Michael’s newest book for young readers, why he believes stories stick when essays fade, and how everyday wonder can turn this life into more than something to simply endure.Resources:Rabbi Michael Zedek’s website: rabbimichaelzedek.comRead Taking Miracles SeriouslyRead People Are Like…: Stories for Young Readers & Readers Who Wish to Stay YoungRead The Spirituality of ImperfectionTo learn more about our wonderful presenters and exciting weeks coming up at the ranch, go to RanchoLaPuerta.com and check out our events calendar.
