The Red Tent, by Anita Diamant, is a story about Jacob, his four wives and his offspring, as told by his only daughter, Dinah. In the book, Dinah gives a voice to her mother who didn’t really have one in the bible. Almost a behind the scenes look at an untold story. This got me thinking… what […]

Paying it forward; one family at a time
