Ep. 9: Rabbi Arthur Stern

Arthur Stern had no thought of becoming Rabbi Stern while pursuing a successful career in business, certainly not while living in a homeless shelter during a period when his life came apart due to addiction to alcohol and other drugs. Even when the voice unexpectedly came to him to become a rabbi – a message that seemed to be from God – he struggled with accepting it as actually a message from God. But, after a series of events confirming that was the direction God wanted him to go, and even though he was again working full time as a business executive, Arthur Stern went to rabbinical school and became Rabbi Stern.
