“I am so impressed by the quality of Mussar learning and the commitment to Mussar learning and practice — at both personal and community level — that I experienced when I visited the Living Mussar community in the Twin Cities. The sheer number of people who have become engaged in Mussar activities is impressive. But even more significant is to see the extent to which Mussar has become an important part of participants’ personal Jewish life and identity. A vibrant, dedicated, collaborative Mussar community is taking shape, and I am impressed beyond words.”
– Dr. Alan Morinis, author of Everyday Holiness and The Shabbat Effect
