Episode 20: The Hidden Voice — When a Soul Sings for the Nation

In the hush between the words… in the notes that tremble with love… a hidden voice rises.

In today’s episode of Revealing the Hidden, we share the story of my uncle, David Lennon, z”l—a sweet, down-to-earth man whose heart was one with his community in Skokie. Beloved by all who knew him, Uncle David didn’t just lead tefillah—he lived it.

On Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, when he would stand before his Creator as a shaliach tzibur, it wasn’t just his voice that filled the room. It was his heart. His sincerity. His deep love for his people. His tefillos weren’t performed—they were offered, gently and powerfully, carrying the soul of the community upward.

This episode is not just a story of music or prayer. It’s a reminder of what it means to represent others with authenticity.

To be a true messenger.

To stand in love, humility, and truth… and sing.
