Episode 11: The Shofar Maker

Paul - The Shofar Maker

An Instrument Made for Worship

📍 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

His Facebook: The Shofar Maker

Thoughts and Reflections

I was very honored with his gratitude from Paul! He was very passionate about his journey. I grew up going to a church, and I understand the power of faith and the impact it has on an individual’s journey. During the day, I didn’t want to alienate myself from Paul by telling him I’m no longer religious, only if he asked, but he never did. I wonder what he thought/guessed about it. 

Perhaps he thought that if I were visiting him specifically, that I am indeed religious. Or because I didn’t tell him about my religion, that I was nonreligious. Well, if he’s reading now, he can guess no longer.

Because of this, I was also wondering if he was going to gift me a Shofar, he might have been trying to decide as well. So I was grateful to have received one. Even if he thought I was non-religious, Paul would be happy that I would be using my channel and the gifted shofar to spread his message. 

I will be inclusive to any and all cultures, religions, and traditions, and not have biases. My channel is about sharing the story of any/all people who make instruments.

I'm looking forward to sharing more videos of instrument makers that have a wide range of cultures, faith, and diversity.
