What is prayer supposed to feel like… especially if it never quite “clicked”?
In this deeply personal episode of Judaism in the 21st Century, Dr. Steven Labkoff opens up about a lifelong struggle with prayer. Despite years of study and exposure, the emotional and spiritual connection others describe has remained elusive. Rabbi Daniel Cohen responds with a powerful reframing: prayer is not about changing God, but about changing us—our perspective, our gratitude, and our sense of purpose.
Together, they explore what it means to engage with prayer in a modern world, how to move beyond simply reciting words, and why even a small, meaningful connection can be transformative. This conversation is honest, vulnerable, and resonates with anyone who has ever felt disconnected from traditional practice.
