Shuva Full Circle: Baal Teshuva Integration
On Shuva Full Circle, we invite respected rabbis, thought leaders, visionaries, influencers, and Baalei Teshuva themselves, to discuss the do's and don’ts of building an inspired life within the framework of religious Judaism. We work toward practical answers while living with the hard questions.
Join us on our journey!

Shuva Full Circle: Baal Teshuva Integration
Mrs. Menucha Schwartz - Making a Mitzvah Our Own Through Learning
In our eleventh episode, we sit down with Mrs. Menucha Schwartz, a daughter of baalei teshuva who now serves the Roswell, GA community as a shlucha. Menucha describes her upbringing in an environment with both religious and secular influences, her journey to personally discover the value of learning, and her experience sharing those lessons with others as a teacher and shlucha. We then dive deep into one area of Torah in particular--the mitzvah of hair-covering for a married woman--and ask Menucha to teach us how women (and their husbands) can understand and relate to this unique expression of Jewish identity and marital sanctity.
