Change is difficult, but not as difficult as staying stuck in a place where you don’t belong.

The road to becoming a בעל תשובה is a process that entails a lot of hard work and sacrifice.

In part 2 of this episode, we will hear how Zach discovered Judaism and how it would fit into his life, the tremendous sacrifices and difficulties he met along the way, and the beautiful life that Zach now lives building a family that is shomer Torah Umitzvos.

A big thank you to Zach Sumner for sharing his story and experiences with us.
