Although the Jewish people have probably seen more wars than any other nation, they have always remained the most passionate about the idea of world peace, harmony, and respect among all peoples. The Jewish scriptures are filled with practical and theoretical knowledge about wars, which can and should be of use today. According to Judaism, some wars are not merely a human conflict but actually have a divine purpose. Winning a war, in that context, means overcoming the darkness and increasing the Godly light in the world. In this episode , Manis shares lessons on winning wars( from the inside out). COMMUNITY

As the world grows louder in its warnings to hide our Jewish identity, Natalie Sopinsky refuses to shrink. A former Delaware native turned firearm-carrying settler and mother of five, Natalie lives in the Hebron Hills and serves as the director of development for emergency services across Judea and Samaria. From teenage identity crises to vibrant life among the hills and goats, from dealing with fear to finding fierce purpose—Natalie’s story is raw, real, and deeply moving. She shares what it means to live with Emunah, how she walks fearlessly in places others deem dangerous, and why the Jewish people must stay rooted, visible, and strong. Natalie is the Director of Development for Hatzalah Yehuda and Shomron, where she oversees emergency medical services across 150 communities throughout Judea and Samaria. A Delaware native raised in a conservative Jewish, all-American home, Natalie made Aliyah and now resides in the Hebron Hills, embracing a lifestyle that reflects her deep commitment to the land and people of Israel. A trained attorney, certified lifeguard, and devoted mother of five, Natalie brings a unique blend of courage, conviction, and care to everything she does. She is also the host of Returning Home, a weekly radio program on Israel News Talk Radio, where she discusses topics related to Aliyah, Jewish identity, and life in Israel’s heartland. Her story is one of transformation, resilience, and purpose—bridging worlds and forging new paths in service of a greater mission.
