When the Field Feels Like a Desert

What does it mean to walk through a spiritual desert? In this episode, the Alter Rebbe reveals that the “field” where the King appears during Elul isn’t always lush and inviting—it can also feel barren, dry, and desolate. But it’s precisely in this emptiness that Hashem chooses to meet us. The desert, in all its quiet, becomes sacred ground.
