Weekly Torah Portion
Every Friday, Amar’e posts the week’s Torah portion: the story, the lesson, and the message. Open to all.
Pillar 05 · Growing Now
Torah, Faith & Spiritual Leadership
Stoudemire Torah & Leadership Institute
Leadership begins with learning; learning begins with faith.
What this pillar will do
Like Abraham, the founder left home, learned, and kept walking. A first journey to Israel in 2010 became a lifelong path of Torah study and faith.
This pillar is growing now. It will cultivate spiritual leadership: Torah learning, faith-rooted mentorship, and the discipline and character that carry a community forward.
One rhythm is already alive: every Friday, Amar’e shares the week’s Torah portion, its story, its lesson, and its message. Teaching and spiritual leadership come from Amar’e, Rabbi Harry, Nadav Reis, and Barrett Edri, and the learning is open to all.
The founder’s own path of leaving what was familiar, taking on Torah study, and building a life between two homes is the template: faith as a practice of leadership, not a private possession. The pillar reaches from Arizona to New York, California, and Jerusalem.
The weekly Torah portion is only the beginning. To be part of what comes next, reach out below and walk with this pillar from the start.
