Season 3 Launch: However Close You Think It is, It's Even Closer
Dec 11, 2022
50:48
Season 3 is here! In today's episode, we tell the story of Ki Karov. How the teachings of Chassidus are so close to us, and so accessible. What you’ll hear is that karov -- close, does not always mean easy, but it means it's possible, and it already belongs to us. Learning Chassidus does not give us access to tools that are outside of us. It gives us an awareness of our inner powers, our kochos, that we all already have within our souls. Join us for a Yud Tes Kislev farbrengen, where we weave together women’s voices from the past season, and allow them to carry us forward, as we begin again. || Today's episode is sponsored by Toveedo.

In honor of the nine days, Nechama Schusterman, a woman who has spent the last few years studying talks of the Lubavitcher Rebbe about Moshiach, explores our role in preparing the world for Moshiach and refining ourselves and homes to make a vessel for a world of revealed G-dliness.

What are some tangible ways that we can face the areas in our lives where Hashem is still not revealed?
