How to Start Again After You Fall (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What happens when we fail, fall short, or do something we deeply regret? Jewish tradition doesn't pretend that great people never fall. In fact, Tanakh and Chazal repeatedly show us heroes who make mistakes, struggle, and fall — but then somehow manage to get back up. In this shiur, we explore a deeper Torah approach to failure and resilience, drawing on Nefesh HaChaim, the Zohar, Rebbe Nachman, Chazal and Tanakh. We explore the remarkable idea that God is renewing the world every moment, and wh
Keeping Kosher in Israel: Terumot & Maaserot Explained (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A practical shiur for olim and anyone interested in everyday halacha in Israel. We focus on Terumot & Maaserot—what they are, how to separate them correctly, and common kashrut questions that arise when living in Israel.
How to Give Life (Part 3): Torah (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the final shiur of the Giving Life series, we explore the first pillar of Pirkei Avot: Torah. Why do Chazal teach that Torah study is equal to all the mitzvot?

Drawing on Pirkei Avot, the Maharal and the Nefesh HaChaim, this shiur presents a vision of Torah as a living force that shapes reality, illuminates our lives, and connects us to
How to Give Life (Part 2): Tefila (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Prayer is often seen as something we do when we need something. But according to Torah, tefillah is fundamentally about relationship. In this second shiur of the How to Give Life series, we explore Avodah—the second pillar upon which the world stands—and how prayer creates a living connection between the human being and God. Through the teachings of the Maharal, Nefesh HaChaim and Chazal, we examine the structure of tefillah, the ascent through the spiritual worlds, and the deeper meaning of sta
How to Give Life (Part 1): Chessed (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What makes a person feel alive? This shiur explores the Torah's understanding of life itself and introduces the idea that the world stands on three life-giving pillars: Torah, Avodah and Gemilut Chassadim. Focusing on kindness, we examine why giving to others is far more than a nice thing to do. According to some of Judaism's deepest teachings, it is one of the primary ways that life enters the world. Drawing on the Maharal, Ramchal and Nefesh HaChaim, we explore how authentic chessed reflects G
