Leviticus is the book I tried to rush through — bloody rituals, endless laws, deep resistance. In this episode, I face it honestly: from dread and discomfort to a surprising revelation about Torah, holiness, and why ritual never disappears from Scripture.

Explore the garden for natural candles crafted to inspire peace and cultivate your sacred rituals.
