4. My Pain is My Tikkun

Is our suffering divine punishment, or is it something deeper?

Join Rav Shlomo in unpacking a soul-stirring 1971 letter from Reb Usher Freund zt”l that redefines how we view pain, failure, and confusion. With brutal honesty and infinite compassion, Reb Usher teaches that the deepest afflictions in life are not punishments. Rather, they are the very vehicles through which we connect to Hashem.

Rav Shlomo explores the inner wars with the yetzer hara, the moments when we feel too broken to pray, and the radical emunah that God isn’t pushing us away, but pulling us closer. This Torah is for the heart of anyone who's ever suffered and still dared to hold on.

In this shiur:

Why we must stop trying to explain our suffering

The hidden kindness in our most bitter battles

How personal pain is the gateway to collective redemption

The difference between divine help and divine partnership
