Can money pull us away from spirituality — or can it actually become holy?In this episode of Toward a Meaningful Life Podcast, David Cohen and Levi Goldstein unpack Rabbi Simon Jacobson’s profound conversation on “The Soul of Money.” Together, they explore the Torah’s revolutionary perspective on abundance, charity, ambition, marriage, work, and trust in God.  The hosts discuss:Why Judaism does not view wealth as evilThe concept of “spiritualizing” moneyThe balance between effort and trusting GodHow money impacts marriage and relationshipsWhy every person needs purpose beyond incomeThe Torah approach to giving, charity, and abundanceHow parents can help children discover their unique callingWhy wealth is less about ownership and more about responsibilityRabbi Jacobson shares powerful analogies about business, blessings, parenting, and purpose — showing how money can either become a source of tension or a vehicle for holiness.This episode is a reminder that Torah doesn’t ask us to escape the material world — it asks us to elevate it.Watch Rabbi Simon Jacobson’s full class here: Full YouTube Class – The Soul of MoneyTo learn more from Rabbi Simon Jacobson, visit: Meaningful Life CenterLet’s journey toward a meaningful life.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/SVJ44-tnetTuR1qzHNhXbOCEbxD0WX9bVE2YntKrw9E/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8wYmFk/MWYzOWYwNjUzNDFm/YWQ0OGNmOGViMWVj/MTlkYi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
