The 40 Day Challenge
How many of us feel spiritually prepared and inspired for the High Holidays?
The forty-day span preceding Yom Kippur is the holiest time on the Jewish calendar, precisely because it was designed to help us find meaning, inspiration, and purpose.
Written in an approachable, uplifting, and accessible style, The 40 Day Challenge is an invitation for people who believe there is more to life than the daily grind. It offers the reader easily digestible and compact Jewish wisdom, each day for the 40 days from Rosh Chodesh Elul leading up to Yom Kippur. Each daily reading is followed by a challenge question so it can serve as a spiritual diary as you approach the High Holidays. This year, instead of just “showing up,” prepare yourself with a Torah insight written by MJE Founder Rabbi Mark Wildes, who has spent his life inspiring Jews from all walks of life.

A great book to prepare for the Jewish holiday season. For each of the 40 days between Rosh Chodesh Elul and Yom Kippur, there is a short reading about an area in which to improve. After the reading, there is a question to think about and with which to challenge yourself. Prioritizing, being consistent, and appreciating all the gifts we receive are just a few of the ideas discussed.
The beauty of the book is that you can use it any time of the year. Start when you can, and 40 days later all the little changes will add up to a big change in your life.
