We often think that looking forward to Moshiach, while unnecessary, is certainly praiseworthy, something that only very righteous people do. But when we dig deeply into Chazal, we see there is much more involved. Reflecting upon Yetzias Mitzraim, we find that longing for Geula had practical consequences for everyone. But it doesn't stop there. As you will hear, the fruits of longing for the Geula are immeasurable and available to you today! Please share your thoughts Email questions and sugg...

Deja Vu? Have we all been here before? Does it feel like that? For most of us, on a conscious level, probably not. But when we go beyond what we feel, and plumb the depths of our deeper collective unconscious, it is nothing less than Deja Vu; that we have been here before. What do I mean?

Conflicts between individual countries carry within them the growing threat of wor...

When we take a cold, hard look at the world today, it doesn’t take much time or insight to recognize that we are living in an unusual or, as some people put it, a “crazy world.” Things just aren’t normal anymore.

So, how does it feel to be consoled? Let’s be honest, we aren’t. So, maybe we should just ask very ...

It will soon be Tisha b’Av, and many of us suffer from a silent, but heartbreaking problem- we can’t cry on this day of tears. As much as we want, and as much as we try, we are unable to cry for something as devastating and life-transforming as the churban. Why? Are we that cold and insensitive, that impervious to Jewish suffering? The answer to this question and the solution may be quite different from what you thought!

This is the Introduction to the new podcast, "Yearning for Moshiach." Beyond the excitement and trepidation of living in "Ikvasa d'Moshiach," there is another dimension that must be explored.

Join me on this journey as we explore this most auspicious time in history and discover how we can transform the experience to give Ha...
