Recently, the Rabbi Mayor Silavichik and Carlos Campo, president of the Museum of the Bible,

joined together with the CEO of Tikva, Eric Cohen, to have a conversation about cherishing

and strengthening America's heritage of religious

freedom. They were convened by the Levy Forum for Open Discourse, now in its fourth season, an initiative

that is sponsored by the American Council of Trustees and Alumni, and generously funded by Paul and

Karen Levy. It's hosted by the Palm Beach Synagogue. Welcome to the Tikva podcast.
