Tisha B'Av: 2000 Years Later, Where Are We?

Aug 7, 2022

53:14

For almost 2,000 years, the Jewish people have been driven from land to land across the globe. Exiled from our home with the destruction of the Bais Hamikdash, we have been forced from continent to continent and country to country – tortured, oppressed, and banished. For a short while, we find haven in one country, only to be kicked out again and chased to the next place in a never-ending series of tragedies. This reality brings many questions: Why is the Jewish people so oppressed?Why is it that the other nations stand up to destroy us in every generation?Why is it that the one universal law of history is that everyone hates the Jew? But, there are even bigger questions to be asked, and those are about ourselves:What have we learned from this long and bitter exile?Have we become wiser?Have we become better?Do we understand the message of galus? This Shmuz puts two millennia of Jewish history into perspective and deals with the major questions of our belief system.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

We wait for Moshiach.This Shmuz focuses on what life will be like in the times of Moshiach,why we anxiously await his appearance, and what we can do to hasten his coming.

Tisha B'Av: What We Lost

Aug 7, 2022

1:03:56

On Tisha B’Av, we are expected to mourn many things: the devastation that happened to our people long ago; the almost two thousand years of expulsions, bloodshed, and torture that we have suffered through since then; and finally, the influence on our mindset and lifestyle picked up by living in exile all of these years. While it takes work to actually feel the pain, the issues aren’t that distant, and most of us can relate to them. There is, however, another aspect of the tragedy that is more difficult to relate to: the loss of the Bais Hamikdash itself and our inability to do the avodah (temple service). The problem is that performing the avodah is something that we have never experienced. How can we recognize what it is? How can we realize what we are lacking? And how can we possibly mourn its loss? This Shmuz brings us closer to relating to what the Bais Hamikdash was and what it was like to experience being inside it.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

Tisha B'Av: From Hashem's Perspective

Aug 7, 2022

50:21

Our understanding of Hashem is often based on a limited interpretation of human nature. Can Hashem get angry with me? Is He punitive, lacking rachmonos? It can sometimes feel that way, as we struggle to understand the Holocaust, the Churban and modern-day tradegies. What is the pain of Hashem? That He wants the geula more than you. That He is waiting, with endless patience, for us to get it right. This Tisha B’Av shmuz will straighten out any crooked thinking, show you where you need to improve and give you hope for the future.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

Session 5: Arrogance and Anger

Jul 7, 2022

50:13

We are all familiar with the characteristics of the arrogant man. He’s argumentative, obnoxious, judgemental and small minded. In this class, Rabbi Shafier explains another hallmark of someone who is haughty- their deep unhappiness and dissatisfaction with life. You see, a baal gaiveh constantly has sunburn on his ego- he is forever seeing himself as slighted, dishonored disrespected. In contrast, a humble man is free to enjoy this world. He can appreciate simple pleasures, get along with people and maintain happy, fulfilling relationships. Ok, so you know which one you want to be. How do you get there? Whilst removing arrogance from our hearts may be a lifetime job, in this essential shiur, Rabbi Shafier explains where to start. Listen now to get the motivation to attain genuine humility and live a life of meaning and satisfaction.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

Becoming a Whole Person: Session 4

Jun 30, 2022

45:17

Session 4: Life Brings Humility In previous classes, we learned how the cornerstone to all middos is humility. In Life Brings Humility, Rabbi Shafier builds upon this fundamental principle by exploring the devastating influence of arrogance. We all agree that arrogance is ugly, but our mesorah goes further: arrogance will inevitably lead a person to forget Hashem. Afterall, when we’re so sure of our own competence and independence, we don’t need a Master. We are in this world to serve Hashem, but when we are consumed by gaaveh, our avoda is ruined, because our intentions define every action. Arrogance will make us hated in this world and empty in the World to Come. It’s the essential work of a lifetime to rid our hearts of it completely, but where do we start? In Life Brings Humility Rabbi Shafier gives us practical tools that are guaranteed to cut through our illusions of grandeur, maintain our sense of self and reconnect to our ultimate Master and Benefactor.   This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

Becoming a Whole Person: Session 3

Jun 22, 2022

44:12

Our ego, left unchecked, will run rampant with delusions of grandeur. It’s so soothing to genuinely believe that I am better than others, I am successful, important, incredibly talented and more than that- the way I am now will last forever. In this candid shiur, Rabbi Shafier picks apart the anatomy of arrogance, showing us where our thinking becomes illogical and driven by our need to feel good about ourselves. Does that mean we should negate our abilities and squash our victories? Absolutely not. But as Torah Jews striving to live an authentic life, we have a responsibility to get real about ourselves and start acknowledging that our talents are gifts from Hashem, given to us to fulfill our role in this world.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
