“I Swear to God”: The Power of Speech and the Fourth Commandment (Part 1)

Rabbi Josh Feigelson explores the Fourth Commandment—“Do not take God’s name in vain”—and what it teaches us about speech, truth, and mindful living. From his days as a Boy Scout to Jewish mystical practices, Josh connects personal stories with ancient wisdom to help us speak with more clarity, compassion, and Divine purpose. You’ll also learn a unique mindfulness exercise inspired by the shofar to deepen your intention and integrity in everyday speech. Be in touch at josh@unpacked.media.
