Since Parashat Yitro's main focus tends to be that we receive the holy Torah at Mt. Sinai, the lessons learned from Moshe and Yitro can often be underappreciated. The truth is that these verses that precede Matan Torah are one that every baal teshuva and convert to Judaism should engrave into their heart.

Why? ANAVA--The Midah that will either build you to have a wonderful life, or break you into a rollercoaster full of bitterness and misery. This discussion will the foundation of our shiur, followed by the questions and answers by the live online audience.

Should All Jews Be Orthodox? | TORAH FOUNDATION (16)

https://youtu.be/TS6JpubUUho

In a recent podcast by 18Forty, the question of whether all jews should be orthodox was asked in order to understand what's missing from the Modern Orthodox Kiruv efforts.

Although the Chovot HaLevavot was written nearly 1000 years ago, HaShem's never ending guidance shows us how his words answer this question and much more. With the help of the clarifying words of the sages, we will see the missing ingredient jump out like never before.

If you are politically correct, confident to the point of arrogance, or selectively ignorant, this will sting a little. Otherwise, Enjoy, Learn, Share and Be Holy.

BESHALACH: The Long Hard Way or Shortcut to Dead End| STUMP THE RABBI (259)

https://youtu.be/0-NQb2_8fXk

It's not unique or surprising that in the age of instant gratification, people choose the Short Easy Way instantaneously. In Parashat Beshalach we see that HaShem chose the long hard way for Am Yisrael to journey through the desert in order to avoid war, yet the Torah says that they were armed.

Why? In life we are often preparing for different events for months or years, only to find out that it was all unnecessary, since HaShem chose a different way. Through the verses and the stories of past times, we will learn more about why our past was the way it was, in hopes to be more prepared for the future.

During the annual TIKKUN SHOVAVIM (& SHOVAVOT) many take advantage of this auspicious time to begin teshuva. But how do we make it last? The Chovot HaLevavot's next explanation for writing the sefer is because he realized that the obvious Torah law was not always the common behavior in past generation, and needless to say, in the the days after until today.

This is why we'll take this opportunity to give new chizuk many of you asked for the old problem most are facing.

The good news is that we already have a head start since Kedusha begins with the heart. Learn, Share, Enjoy and Be Holy.

BO: Merits For Exodus Then vs Now | STUMP THE RABBI (258)

https://youtu.be/Rcy47gW6-s0

In Parashat Bo we learn about the 3 last plagues HaShem brought down on the Egypt before bringing Am Yisrael the Exodus Salvation.

With the world antisemitism and war against the Torah heating up daily, we must ask ourselves how our merits today compare to then.

It seems like Names, Clothing, and Language were simple enough to observe even while being slaves surrounded by idolatry and immorality. Perhaps a closer look at the facts will help put things into perspective. Enjoy, Learn, Share and Be Holy.
