Jerusalem, Israel - Feb. 9, 2026 - Ronit Ziv-Kreger, author and editor of Soul Full: Gateways to Jewish Prayer, reached into her bag at the close of a Momentum event in Neve Ilan, outside Jerusalem, and handed me a copy of her book.

Among those involved is Rabbi Yitzchak Berkovits, Rosh Yeshiva of Aish HaTorah, who writes, “I have reviewed every page, offered guidance throughout its development, and enthusiast...
