Why I Quit My Rock-Band and Became a Rabbi

Description

Moshe Gersht was the lead singer of a popular rock band in Los Angeles and had a major record deal, fame, and money — but he wasn’t happy. In this interview, Moshe Gersht shares his incredible story of going from a famous rockstar to becoming an Orthodox rabbi. This is a powerful Jewish inspiration story about leaving fame, music, and a record deal to search for truth, meaning, and purpose in life.
