Secrets to Creating Closeness l Vayikra

from Connecting Jewish Grandparents · host Sharona Hassan - Grand Plan

Can the Torah’s laws of animal sacrifices actually teach us how to be better grandparents? People told master educator Rabbanit Sharona Hassan that parts of the Torah would be impossible to connect to modern grandparenting. What about Vayikra? What could korbanot (sacrifices) possibly teach about family relationships? In this episode of the Grand Plan Podcast: Connecting Jewish Grandparents, Sharona reveals three powerful principles from Parashat Vayikra that can help grandparents build and maintain deep closeness with their grandchildren. Because the word korban doesn’t simply mean sacrifice. It means drawing close. Discover how the Torah’s ancient system of offerings teaches timeless lessons about intentional connection, presence, and the small acts that strengthen family bonds across generations. And if you want to go deeper, Sharona invites you to join her upcoming workshop series: “Becoming the Grandparent You Want to Be.” https://grandplan.kit.com/profile/workshop
