About: Wellspring Warrior I once heard a story about the Baal Shem Tov’s vision, where he entered the chamber of Moshiach and asked, “When will the Master [Moshiach] come?”

Moshiach responded, “When your wellsprings will spread to the outside.” The Wellspring Warrior is a comic book that shares these “wellsprings” of ideas and teachings with the “outside” world. But, of course, we will soon realize there is no place outside G-d’s reality, and if the Wellspring Warrior does his job, the concept of inside and outside will soon be a thing of the past.

Welcome to Wellspring Warrior Volume 1!

In 1698, the Jews of Eastern Europe were depressed from extreme poverty and dangerous anti-semitism. We desperately needed a leader to revolutionize Jewish thought and breathe new life into a fainting nation.

That year, Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov (“master of the good name”) was born, and his ideas would energize and uplift a broken nation. As a Torah scholar and mystic, he founded the Chasidic movement and told the hard-working Jews that we are more than just a mind with a body; we have a Divine soul that isn’t broken at all.

Still today, the effects of his teachings and philosophy profoundly impact the entire Jewish world.

Happy Reading,

Wally the Wellspring Warrior

g n i r p Wells r o i r r a W SAY THANK YOU

We all have something to be thankful for, and adopting the habit of saying "Thank you G-d" in response to positive experiences extends the Modeh Ani gratitude and awareness to all aspects of daily life.

Additionally, living with a heightened sense of gratefulness ultimately shifts our focus from specific gifts to a deeper appreciation of life, our soul, and our purpose.

Today, more than ever, we all need to hear this simple "Modeh Ani" truth: you have a perfectly pure soul, you're loveable, and you are unstoppable in your mission. So, try incorporating daily gratitude into your life and see how voicing this fundamental truth can change your world.

Now you can start your morning with the Modeh Ani mug. Gratitude you can hold in your hand. Available at iOfferThanks.com.
