In Psalm 31 we learn David's afflictions were able to shake him, but they weren't able to break him. It's because he anchored his life to God. The reality is afflictions will eventually come, and you need something to anchor your life to when they do come. Pastor Louis reminds us that the only firm foundation you can anchor your life to that isn't shakable and breakable is God.

A Study In Genesis 12-25

Pastor Dru Rodriguez highlights Tolstoy's insight that while proofs for God's existence are available to all, truly knowing Him requires a willing heart and ongoing communion with Christ; he encourages believers to abide in Jesus so His life flows through them.

Facing adversity often feels like a daunting challenge, but what if these struggles are actually stepping stones to profound spiritual growth? On this episode of the Thinking Talmudist podcast, we examine the teachings of Rabbi Shimon ben Yochai and Rabbi Akiva, who illuminate the spiritual gifts attainable through perseverance. Rabbi Akiva's inspiring journey, beginning his Torah study at age 40 and overcoming immense hurdles, reminds us that resilience can lead to understanding and influence that transcend time. By embracing these "afflictions of love," we prepare ourselves for greater achievements and deeper connections with our spiritual heritage.Words hold immense power, shaping reality and relationships in ways we often overlook. We explore how maintaining integrity in our speech, even in the face of social discomfort, is vital for personal and communal growth. Through stories of resilience, like the collective spirit post-September 11th, we highlight how shared struggles can unite and transform communities, urging us to cultivate unity and kindness. Like the process of creating olive oil, where pressure brings forth purity, adversity can reveal our best qualities and foster an indomitable spirit within individuals and communities alike.Parenting holds the delicate power to shape a child's future through affirmation and encouragement. Drawing on Talmudic wisdom and the example of the High Priest, Aharon HaKohen, we discuss the necessity of bending the truth at times for the sake of peace and harmony. Positive reinforcement from parents can set the stage for a child's confidence and success, and we stress how expressing belief in their potential can nurture their greatness. Whether it's encouraging a child or fostering harmony among people, these affirmations are the foundation of nurturing confident, capable individuals who carry forward the legacy of resilience and integrity._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud.This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by David & Susan MarbinRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios to a live audience on May 16, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 6, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Join Dr. Greg Beutel live as we continue our “Rules to Live By” series with insights on being joyful in hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer. Discover how these principles from Romans 12 provide resilience and peace in life's challenges.

Reflecting on the journey of my grandson, born prematurely, we dedicate this episode to his speedy recovery and explore the concept of "afflictions of love" from the Talmud's Tractate Berachot 5a. We consider the paradox of life's greatest gifts often requiring the most arduous paths—whether it's mastering the Torah or making Aliyah to Israel. Through personal stories and experiences, we explore the idea that these challenges form an integral part of spiritual growth, offering not just purification, but a deeper connection to the divine.Our exploration continues with a discussion on viewing divine rebuke as an expression of love. By examining teachings from the Torah and insights from figures like Rabbi Yisrael Salanter, we dissect how lesser afflictions can provide lessons for enduring more significant ones. This episode also highlights the significance of individualized tests tailored by Hashem, encouraging us to embrace these challenges not merely as trials but as opportunities for profound spiritual cleansing and liberation. We recognize the importance of appreciating these divine challenges, for they contribute to building our resilience and character.The conversation extends into the realm of parenting, exploring the delicate balance between allowing children to navigate life's challenges and intervening when necessary. We discuss strategies for fostering healthy environments, especially in our technologically saturated world, and emphasize the importance of empathy and compassion in our interactions with others. Through narratives of balancing love and humanity, we conclude with the hope that these insights provide guidance and inspiration, encouraging listeners to face their personal trials with faith and fortitude._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way.

Series: Treasure In Jars Of Clay Passage: 2 Corinthians 1:1-11

A Sunday sermon given by Pastor Chris Gilbert titled "The Furnace of Affliction" Sunday May 18, 2025

What if the very struggles and afflictions we face are divine opportunities for introspection and growth? We invite you to explore the poignant insights of Tractate Brachot 5A, where ancient wisdom meets modern challenges. This episode unpacks the spiritual significance of illness and suffering, not as obstacles but as gifts that allow for emotional and spiritual preparation. Against the backdrop of the tragic events in Israel on October 7th, 2023, we draw parallels to the collective need for unity and reflection during national crises, urging us to find purpose and meaning even in our darkest moments.Emphasizing vigilance and dedication, we examine how the Torah community must embrace a renewed sense of responsibility. Through personal anecdotes and teachings from the Talmud, we see how unexpected situations can transform into opportunities for mitzvot, revealing the divine messages hidden within our daily experiences. Reflect on the profound concept of "afflictions of love," where divine trials aren't just burdens but pathways to purify the soul and earn eternal rewards. As we connect these lessons to the spiritual essence of the Korban Asham, we understand the weight of acknowledging wrongdoings and seeking atonement.In a world where routine often dulls passion, this episode challenges us to maintain the sincerity and purpose behind our sacred practices. Through the lens of childhood vaccinations, we draw parallels to how afflictions are expressions of divine love. We also explore the profound notion from the Talmud that the suffering of children serves as a powerful atonement message for their generation, urging personal and communal introspection. Together, we strive to embrace these lessons, extending wishes for a meaningful and peaceful Shabbos, filled with reflection and spiritual connection._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way.
