There are so many of us who are disenchanted with the entire way Tisha b'Av demands of us. Sit on the floor. Mourn. Listen to sad stories. My Rebbi- Rav Yitzchock Berkovits Puts a terrific perspective on it all that had me actually excited for the avodah of Tisha B'av this year. In truth I gave this class right after I sat with Nachi Gordon from Meaningful Minute to film an Episode for Tisha B'av.

This time of year is always an odd one in Judaism. we are meant to feel something for Galut and the Bet Hamikdash but what? Believe it or not there is an underlying simcha to it all. We journey with the Jews in the Parsha through the 42 places in the Midbar to find a starting point for ourselves in making sense of these times. Also I admit I still like Lego.
In this Shiur We explore the incredible secret behind what makes a great Jewish leader. We discuss homebrewing beer & some of my favorite stories.
We get vulnerable in this one! We dive deep into the ideas I heard from My Rebbi Rav Yitzock Berkovitz Shlita concerning the Yetzer Hora's lies when it comes to negative thoughts and depressive ideas. Along the way I confess to too much, just waaaay too much.
