In modern times, the widespread rejection of tradition has left cultures across the world on the brink of collapse. Civilized society's foundational stones of religion, morality, and traditional family values have been irreverently tossed aside. A Time to Build articulates in clear and contemporary terms the timeless relevance of the Torah and its indispensable role as a blueprint for a decent, healthy, and enduring society. Now, more than ever, is "a time to build."
