This year it’s not about changing your actions, it’s about changing your perspective on what you think your life is supposed to be.

Please enjoy last years class on Devarim and the importance of words and how we can use them!

Discover how the month of Tammuz invites us to transform challenges into growth through gratitude, self-worth, and a deeper connection to our inner strength. Join us as we uncover practical and spiritual tools for turning setbacks into stepping stones.

In this episode, I’m joined by Rachelle Beyda as we explore a deeply personal and spiritual question: how do we approach Hashem from where we truly are while still reaching toward who we hope to become?

Together, we discuss how to learn about the great spiritual heights we can reach without placing unrealistic expectations on ourselves. And when we recognize that we may not yet be able to live at that level, how do we avoid the quiet despair that can slowly lower our standards, our dreams, and our belief in who we are capable of becoming?

We explore the challenge of loving and embracing ourselves where we are right now while still striving for growth. Through the lens of Pesach, we reflect on Egypt as both a historical place and an inner experience, and consider what Pharaoh might symbolize in our lives today.

Drawing on an insight from Rabbi Yaakov Danishefsky, we arrive at a powerful idea: placing ourselves in the Seder means showing up as our real, authentic selves—and allowing the Seder to meet us exactly in that place.

Megillat Esther is a book that never mentions Hashem’s name, and yet it reveals Him more than almost any other.

In this episode, we learn Rabbi Akiva Tatz’s powerful insights from Worldmask and confront the central question of Purim: How is concealment actually revelation?

We delve into the spiritual root of Haman, the Torah essence of Amalek, and the battle against a worldview that denies meaning beneath the surface. Purim teaches us that when Hashem is most hidden, He may be the most close, and that our task is to uncover Him.

Join us in learning the First Perek in Megilat Esther with the commentary of Rabbi Moshe Weinberger based on his Sefer Bilvat Esh on the Megilah. May we merit to see the coming of Mashiach speedily in our days! Be blessed!

In this episode, we continue learning Baderech by Rav Judah Mischel, focusing on the chapter of B’Simcha, what it really means to live and serve Hashem with happiness. Guided by the pasuk “שִׁוִּיתִי ה׳ לְנֶגְדִּי תָמִיד,” we explore our role in shaping how we see the world. Together, we discuss how working on our thoughts and perceptions can transform our Avodat Hashem, helping us cultivate deeper joy, awareness, and connection in our daily lives.

How do we take this light with us during the year? Become an ACTIVE player. Such great ideas here as we read together Rabbi Moshe Weinberger book on Bilvat Esh night 8

In this class, we explore the appendix of A New Approach to Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur through the teachings of Rav Berkowitz. Gain fresh insights into Hashem’s 13 traits of mercy and understand the depth of each trait as a ladder to even greater compassion. Learn what these traits truly mean, how they impact us, and how they encourage real and sincere Teshuva, while fostering a deeper, loving, personal relationship with Hashem.

On Tisha B’Av, we mourn the destruction of the Beit HaMikdash, but Chazal tell us something shocking: when the Romans entered the Kodesh HaKodashim, they found the keruvim facing each other. Normally, when Bnei Yisrael stray, the keruvim turn away from each other. But then, at the very moment of destruction, they were turned toward one another. Hashem was sending us a message: even in the darkest moment, His love for us remains.

Tisha B’Av is not just about remembering, it’s about fixing and improving our relationship. Hashem will not lower the bar on our connection. He believes in us. He desires closeness, even when we’ve fallen. Don’t let this day pass by unchanged. This is a call to return, to rise, to respond. If the keruvim faced each other in the ashes, then even now, in our own brokenness, we are being invited back. The only question is—will we move toward Him?

In this climactic final chapter of Megillat Ruth, Boaz takes action to redeem Ruth and Naomi through a public legal process at the city gate. What begins as a story of loss and loyalty reaches its powerful resolution with the birth of Oved, the grandfather of King David, marking the origin of the Davidic dynasty and sealing Ruth’s place in Jewish destiny as Em Hamalchut.

After the loss and destruction discussed in Perek Aleph, Perek Bet offers a glimpse of hope for Naami and Ruth. This Perek delves into the themes of Kindness, determination, responsibility, modesty, and Hashgacha Pratit. It marks a subtle yet significant turning point in Ruth and Naomi’s path towards redemption.
