He Risked Everything to Become Jewish

Meaningful People

Jack shares his background growing up on a dairy farm in rural Australia, living a simple and secular life, and later moving to Melbourne at age 17 to seek something more meaningful. He recalls feeling a spiritual pull, and eventually encountering Judaism. His first experiences of Shabbat and Jewish holidays gave him an overwhelming sense of belonging and warmth, which sparked his gradual journey toward conversion. Adriana and Jack discuss themes of faith, purpose, the deep fulfillment found in Torah study, and the beauty of living a life filled with meaning, connection, and spiritual growth.
