Truth is absolute, not subjective or multi-sided. In a world of compromise, political correctness, and “my truth,” the Torah demands unwavering commitment to reality and honesty, even when uncomfortable or unpopular.Rabbi Wolbe explains that every decision is a choice between life/good and death/evil (Deuteronomy 30). We must research questions thoroughly, avoid flippant answers, and admit “I don’t know” when appropriate. Compromise has its place (e.g., mezuzah on a slant for peace), but truth itself does not bend. He stresses personal responsibility: only you determine your life path; take ownership and make changes where needed. Torah is the ultimate source of truth — investigate it deeply rather than defaulting to convenience or societal pressure._____________Recorded in the TORCH Centre - Studio B to a live audience on June 17,  2022, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on March 21, 2023The 49 days we count between Pesach (Passover) and Shavuot are an exciting time for powerful and impactful change.
