When wildfires tore through Los Angeles, houses of worship weren’t spared. In this episode, we hear from three faith leaders who lost their sacred spaces—but not their sense of purpose. Pastor John Shaver, Cantor Chayim Frenkel, Bishop Charles Dorsey, and Aaron and Delores Abdus Shakoor join us for a powerful hour to share how their communities are recovering, the role of faith in healing after disaster, and how generosity becomes a spiritual practice in times of crisis.
