What if faith wasn’t a leap, but a step grounded in everyday clarity? We sit down with Rabbi Dovid Sapirman—veteran educator and founder of the Ani Maamin Foundation—to explore how Emuna (faith) becomes sturdy when built on common sense and a little knowledge. From the tailor and the jacket to the precision of an eggshell and the “walking pharmacy” of the human body, we trace how design points to a Designer and how that recognition reshapes how we live.
Together, we challenge the idea that tradition alone can hold us in uncertain times. Tradition matters, but clarity is what steadies the heart. We discuss why Emuna must come before Bitachon (trust), and how trust grows when three questions are answered: Is the Protector present, capable, and caring? We discuss distraction as the modern obstacle to seeing what’s in plain sight, the strength of communal testimony from Sinai, and the practical ways to move from belief on paper to belief in practice.
This conversation is for anyone who wants more than slogans. It’s for the person who needs a reason to keep going, a framework to think with, and a way to turn conviction into daily courage. You’ll hear stories, analogies, and a gentle push to pay attention to what the world already shows. By the end, you’ll have a clearer path from Emuna to Bitachon—less fear, more purpose, and a steadier way to face what comes next.
