Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. In this teaching, Rabbi Berkson clarifies a couple of things, including the authority given to the husband in Scripture. It seems that some people misinterpreted what Rabbi said in the last teaching, to the point that it could be very troublesome in some marriages. So Rabbi Steve takes the opportunity to give some “Covenant-Live Coaching” for married couples, those looking to be married soon, and those who should not be in an intimate relationship yet, including teenagers. Then, moving into Ephesians chapter 6, Rabbi Berkson addresses the children and “servants”. Which commandment is for the children, and which is the only one with a promise? Could this commandment have a deeper, more far-reaching interpretation? Paul wrote to the fathers not to “provoke” their children…what does this mean? Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

What if your mood swings, anxiety, sleep issues, or loss of motivation aren't just "getting older?" What role does oxytocin really play in midlife, and why has it been overlooked for so long? In this episode, I'm joined by the brilliant hormone scholar Dr. Lindsey Berkson, and we dive into a part of menopause that almost no one is talking about—what's happening in your brain. We explore how hormones act as the body's Wi‑Fi system, and what happens when that signal gets disrupted. Could environmental toxins be hijacking not just estrogen and progesterone, but oxytocin too? And if so, how might that impact connection, libido, blood sugar, digestion, or even depression? This conversation gets bold, nuanced, and deeply eye-opening. Dr. Berkson also challenges mainstream narratives around hormone therapy. Were we misled about estrogen and breast cancer? Why do some women struggle with HRT while others thrive? And could detoxification and nutrient status be the missing link? If you've ever wondered why your body isn't responding the way you expected, you won't want to miss this one! In this episode, we uncover: How oxytocin impacts mood, sleep, libido, and connection in midlife. Why environmental toxins may disrupt your hormonal "Wi‑Fi." What makes some women struggle with hormone replacement therapy. How oxytocin supports blood sugar, digestion, and pain relief. Why estrogen and progesterone are more protective than you've been told.

Love and Torah—what's the link? This series explores the “Two Great Commands’: loving Yahweh and loving your neighbor. Building on Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson starts with verse 18, discussing “emotional preferences” and how they can either help or hinder your walk in Torah. Moving to verse 22, he encourages husbands and wives to understand the roles of marriage as outlined by Elohim. Rabbi Berkson carefully analyzes these passages to deepen your understanding of what Yahweh expects, guiding you to fulfill these expectations and receive His blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app Follow MTOI: https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

Love and Torah—what's the connection? This series is based on the “Two Great Commands’: loving Yahweh and loving your neighbor. Continuing with Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson highlights how Messiah Yeshua clarified the scriptural meaning of “love your neighbor as yourself” by adding, “love one another as I have loved you” (John 15:12). What does it truly mean to be ‘walking in darkness’? How can Yahweh see that you hold Him in importance? What institution has He given us that serves as a model for these relationships? How are love and time interconnected, and what exactly is a “generational curse”? Rabbi Steve shares several personal stories to illustrate common issues we all face as we navigate our vertical and horizontal relationships. Once again, Rabbi Berkson breaks down these passages to deepen your understanding of what Yahweh expects so you can fulfill it and receive His blessings. https://mtoi.org The MTOI App https://mtoi.org/download-the-mtoi-app https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwide admin@mtoi.org (423) 250-3020 Join us LIVE (all times Eastern): Torah Study, Fridays 7:30 pm Shabbat Service, Saturdays 1:15 pm Streaming available on YouTube, Rumble, MTOI App, and mtoi.org

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Continuing in Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson reveals the “two main areas of our existence.” This concept has much to do with the meaning of our existence and how we treat each other, according to scripture. From verse 13, the word “reprove” or “convicted” is further defined, at the request of many. What are the fruits of darkness? (verse 11) What did Paul mean when he wrote, “wake up, you who sleep”? (verse 14) To whom was he referring? How does one do that? How can you know if you're one of those who need to wake up? How does Elohim expect us to walk before Him? (verse 15) Rabbi Berkson clarifies what it means to walk “exactly.” To what are we compared if we do or don't “walk exactly”? Many ask Rabbi Berkson if he would take them “deeper” in their walk. Their definition of “deeper” is somewhat different, so he corrects and redefines what “deeper” really means. Do you know when you actually have a problem or just an undesirable challenge? Rabbi Berkson brings much-needed wisdom to this topic that just might give you some relief. Do you know what the phrase “redeem the time” refers to? Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. In Ephesians 5, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues teaching us how to love each other. Stopping at verse 1, he expounds on becoming imitators of Elohim as dear children. In verse 2, we are exhorted to walk in love as the Messiah also loved us, giving ourselves to others as a gift to Elohim. Do you want to send up a “sweet-smelling aroma” to Yahweh? Learn to serve others. In verses 3 and 4, we see a list of behaviors that should not even be named among the Body of Messiah. Rabbi Berkson takes some time to clarify one of those behaviors – uncleanness. • What do these behaviors have to do with loving each other? In verse 5, there is something we are expected to know – what is it we should know? Why should we know it? In verse 6, Rabbi Berkson asks why Paul would write about “empty words”. What are they? Why are we cautioned about them? How have some teachers misconstrued the meaning of “empty words”? How do they affect our inheritance in the Kingdom of Elohim? In verses 7-10, Rabbi Berkson asks, “Who are you trying to please?” Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Then, in verse 2, we are exhorted to walk in love as the Messiah also loved us, giving ourselves to others as a gift to Elohim. Rabbi Berkson identifies several points that will help you understand and do this. He also identifies a couple of glaring problems that are adversely affecting the Body of Messiah today.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Continuing our journey through the second of the Two Great Commands, ‘love your neighbor', Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Luke 6:38, where we see Messiah Yeshua continuing to show the contrast between what Rabbi Berkson calls “the Below” and “the Above”. He points out that in order to please the Father, you must be aligned with “the Above”. A component of loving Yahweh and your neighbor is giving. What does that mean, though? Rabbi Berkson clarifies how, when, and why to give. He also points out an incentive to give, noting that whatever we give will be returned, pressed down, shaken together, and running over. Rabbi Berkson uses his trip to a Baskin-Robbins™ ice cream store to make the point. In Luke 6:39-40, Messiah Yeshua tells a parable about the blind leading the blind. Rabbi Berkson cautions about where and from whom you get your information as you walk in Torah observance. There's a lot of misinformation out there that presents itself with authority. In verse 41, Yeshua teaches about the plank in your eye and the splinter in your brother's eye. Rabbi Berkson explains how some people take Torah knowledge and use it as a weapon to try to “help” others with their walk. “Correction can only happen correctly in the right relationship.” Then in Luke 6:47-49, Rabbi Berkson tells us that our lives are like building a house. Are we building on the correct foundation, or without one? The key is whether or not we are listening to and doing the words of Messiah. Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Rosh Chodesh (the new moon) is a time marker for honest self-examination and goal setting. Each new cycle is a chance to look back without self-condemnation, learn from what happened, and plan specific changes going forward. Life is framed as a transformational process with a clear target: becoming like Yeshua, measured in seven interconnected areas—spiritual, financial, physical health, relationships, mental health, emotional health, and community. Rabbi Berkson insists that you can't ignore the “other six” and claim to focus only on the spiritual, because problems in health, money, emotions, or relationships will distract from spiritual growth and spill over into each other. The practical advice is to rank these seven areas from 1 (worst) to 7 (best), then prioritize working on the area that is “bleeding” the most. That means studying why you struggle there, defining what “fixed” looks like, seeking out resources and experts, and being willing to work consistently, including retaking the “Level Up” class as a launchpad rather than a one-time fix.A key theme is mindset: become an expert in your problems, seek workarounds when limitations can't be removed, and adopt Yeshua's perspective of enduring current discomfort for future gain. Rabbi Berkson also emphasizes the importance of participating in community life—attending events, being friendly rather than passively waiting for others, and building genuine relationships. Ultimately, adult maturity in Messiah is defined as fully owning where you are and taking responsibility for where you go next across all seven areas of life.• Marking the movement of time• The journey of transformation • Time to “Level Up” in the seven areas of your life• Once is not enough • Become an expert on your struggles• I just want to focus on the spiritual• The seven areas of life are cross-effective • Ranking the seven areas for improvement • Thriving within / Find a workaround• There are proper levels for all emotions • Developing and growing into a community/family• The Level Up program will answer these questions Subscribe to take advantage of new content every week.To learn more about MTOI, visit our website, https://mtoi.org.https://www.facebook.com/mtoiworldwide https://www.instagram.com/mtoi_worldwidehttps://www.tiktok.com/@mtoi_worldwide You can contact MTOI by emailing us at admin@mtoi.org or calling 423-250-3020. Join us for Shabbat Services and Torah Study LIVE, streamed on our website, mtoi.org, YouTube, and Rumble every Saturday at 1:15 p.m. and every Friday for Torah Study Live Stream at 7:30 p.m. Eastern time.

Rabbi Steve Berkson would like to introduce Mr. William Jackson to the MTOI family. Among his many abilities and talents, Mr. Jackson assists Rabbi Berkson with administrative tasks, sings in the Praise Team, and is an accomplished speaker and teacher. In the Gospel of John, chapter 15, Messiah Yeshua gave His disciples final instructions before His execution by the occupying Romans. He told them emphatically, “Stay in Me,” because they could do nothing on their own (John 15:4). What does it mean to “stay in” Messiah? How do we stay connected to Him? Why is it so hard to stay in Him? Why is it so important to stay in Him? To connect the concept of “Stay in Me,” Mr. Jackson takes us to Matthew chapter 25 and expounds on the two parables the Messiah taught there – the Ten Virgins and their lamps and oil, and the man who gave his servants his possessions to invest while he was on a trip. Mr. Jackson offers insights into these parables that few have heard before. You will be encouraged and strengthened by this powerful teaching.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Continuing our journey into the second of the Two Great Commands, ‘love your neighbor', Rabbi Steve Berkson turns to Luke 6:20, where he examines the event known as the Sermon on the Mount. Messiah teaches His disciples, contrasting life in this world (the below) with life in the heavens (the above). • Do you feel blessed when others mistreat you because of your faith in the Messiah? • Are you able to look ahead to the joy that is coming? Can you practice delayed gratification? • How can it be a bad thing when people speak well of you? What people? • How is it possible to love your enemy as the Messiah taught us to? Were you ever an “enemy of Elohim”? Didn't He love you when you were in that state?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Some of the topics covered in this teaching: • John 14:12 – Messiah Yeshua says, “He who believes in Me will also do the works that I do, and even greater works he shall do because I go to my Father.” What “works” is Messiah referring to? • John 14:13 – Can someone ask for something ‘in His Name (authority)' if that one is outside the authority of Messiah? • John 14:16-17 – Do you understand correctly what this “Helper” and the “Spirit of Truth” are? Is it another being? • How does the Christian organization “Mock Messiah” without actually intending to? • What is the one thing that defines those who are part of the Body of Messiah?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This series explores the “Two Great Commands’: love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Key topics include: • How does Messiah's statement, ‘I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life,’ relate to Torah observance? • What role does ‘to know' play in your relationship with the Creator and others? • What truly defines being a disciple? Is it merely a student/teacher dynamic? • Does Messiah align with your expectations? Does Yeshua fit your paradigm of Messiah? Is the Creator what you think He should be? And what about the Holy Spirit, your leadership, or teachers? Do your preconceptions influence how you perceive their interaction with you and humanity? • Has current worldly life disturbed your shalom/peace? Have you studied your Bible to understand what lies ahead in challenging times? When you entered into a covenant with the Creator, did you understand what that entailed? • What does it mean when someone says, ‘He knows my heart…’ about the Creator? Rabbi Berkson shares his pet peeve to shed light on this. Rabbi Berkson revisits these passages to help deepen your understanding of Yah's expectations, guiding you to fulfill them and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. How does the Creator define our relationship with Him? Continuing in John chapter 15, Rabbi Steve Berkson explores the ‘Love/Hate' aspects of our walk. Rabbi Berkson points to verse 18, where the Messiah, out of love, tells His disciples and us that if He was hated and rejected by the world, then we would be hated and rejected too. Why would “the world” hate you? What or who is “the world”? What does the movie, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, have to do with us and “the world”? Then, moving into John chapter 14, Rabbi Berkson clarifies what Yeshua meant when He said, “I go to prepare a place for you…” You should be very excited when you hear what Rabbi Berkson has to say about that.

Love and Torah—what's love got to do with it? This series explores the “Two Great Commands': loving Yahweh and loving your neighbor. What does John 15 reveal about Yah's kingdom structure? How does John 15 connect to Genesis 1's creation account? What was the first instruction given to humanity? When Yeshua told His disciples to keep His commands, which ones did He mean? Did Messiah add to Torah? In John 15:15, Yeshua told His disciples they are no longer servants but friends. What is the difference between a servant and a friend? How do we define 'friend'? Since Messiah said this to His disciples, how does it apply to us today? Rabbi Berkson carefully analyzes these passages again to help you better understand what Yah expects of you—so you can do it and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Beginning this teaching in John 15:5, Rabbi Steve Berkson explains what Messiah Yeshua meant when He was exhorting His disciples to “stay in Me and He in them,” and how that statement could also be understood as, “if you are in covenant with Me.” Without the Spirit of Messiah (His intrinsic nature) in us, it is impossible to be in covenant with Him and His Father. • What is Covenantal Fruit? Moving on, Rabbi Berkson expands on a crucial point for developing a correct mindset when dealing with those around us, centered on the phrase “he is broken off and thrown away.” This leads him into passages in Matthew 13 and Romans 11 that were not in his notes. • What is the role for the Kingdom that surpasses all of our ‘pay grades'? • Is your being considered a “darnel” or a “tare” predestined? • Do you hold preconceptions about what leadership should look or sound like? What's the danger in that? Rabbi Berkson does a “reset” of a ‘faith idea' most of us have been taught throughout our lives, specifically the notion of “ask whatever you wish and it shall be done for you.” What is the terrible word that precedes the Messiah's statement about ‘asking'? Toward the end of the teaching, what started as a side note turned into an inspiring life-coaching moment as Rabbi Berkson discussed being unequally yoked, then shifted focus to those who are single and looking for a mate.

Love and Torah—what's the link? This series focuses on the “Two Great Commands"—loving Yahweh and your neighbor. While many groups claim to believe in the Creator and His Messiah, they often hold differing views. Everyone agrees love is vital, but what does it look like in practice? What actions does it involve? In this series, Love & Torah, Rabbi Steve Berkson offers straightforward biblical insights into these questions. After finishing his study of Psalm 119, which highlights loving Elohim, Rabbi Berkson now turns to how to love others. The Gospel of John, chapter 15, serves as an ideal starting point, as Messiah Yeshua uses agricultural metaphors to teach His disciples about the relationship He desires among believers. • What is the “gap” between the Gardener and the Vine? • What does pruning mean? How does it relate to you? • If Messiah Yeshua calls Himself the “True Vine," could there be false vines? • Why did Messiah Yeshua say, “Stay in Me"? • Why does verse 15:3 mention being clean because of the Word? • What is a direct download from the Ruach? • Do you need to pray before doing anything? • What is “Vertical Awareness”? Rabbi Berkson once again analyzes these passages in detail, helping you gain a deeper understanding of what Yah expects and how you can fulfill it to receive blessings.

Love and Torah—what's the connection? This series explores the “Two Great Commands'—loving Yahweh and loving your neighbor. In Psalm 119, starting from verse 159, Rabbi Steve Berkson reveals a ‘truth' in King David's repeated pleas to Elohim to “revive” him because he loves Elohim's commandments. Do you feel the need for revival? Romans 10:4 mentions that “Messiah is the end of the Law for righteousness…" in some translations, but does this imply the Law's end, or does the word 'end' have a different meaning? Does 'forever' truly mean forever? Rabbi Berkson challenges the idea of forever, explaining his perspective. Daily life provides evidence that the Brit Hadasha (New Testament) is true—do you know what these signs are? As you strive to become like Messiah Yeshua, what is the most influential factor in your life? Rabbi Berkson again carefully analyzes these passages to deepen your understanding of what Yah expects, so you can act accordingly and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's the connection? This study series is centered around the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Psalm 119, verse 150, continues this teaching, where Rabbi Steve Berkson explains that those who pursue mischief have a different agenda than Yahweh and are far from His Torah. These individuals lack an intimate relationship with The Creator. They may outwardly do what is right, but their hearts are far from Him. Rabbi Berkson also explores the distinction between “mercy” and “grace/favor,” providing a clear understanding of these terms. King David, the psalmist, wrote about those who “have not sought Your Laws” and called them “the wrong ones.” Do you seek His Laws? Lashon Hara, Hebrew for “evil tongue,” is a term many people are familiar with but may be confused about its true meaning. Rabbi Berkson delves into the meaning of this term and its impact on your life and the lives of those around you. Rabbi Berkson offers some of the best life coaching available as he explores the intricate world of human relationships, including dating, marriage, and raising children. He highlights relationship attributes such as “default expectancy” and “understood expectancy,” helping you understand how these attributes can affect you. Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages, providing a deeper understanding of what Yahweh expects of you, enabling you to fulfill His expectations and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This series explores the “Two Great Commands': love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Focusing on our hearts and minds towards the Creator and His Torah, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues our journey through King David's writings in Psalm 119. Starting at verse 145, he highlights how David links petitioning God with explaining why we seek His help and why we believe He should answer. Rabbi Berkson questions whether, when we call out to the Almighty, “Answer me,” we can honestly say, “I observe Your laws.” The Creator initially made us to receive from Him. Through faith in Messiah Yeshua and living righteously, we become a ‘new creature' that moves from earthly, basic things to heavenly ones. This ‘new creature' learns to be a ‘giver,' like the Almighty. What do Jews and Christians agree on? What does Yahweh desire from you? Rabbi Berkson again breaks down these passages to deepen your understanding of Yahweh's expectations, so you can fulfill them and receive His blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Moving forward in Psalm 119, Rabbi Steve Berkson has a few questions for us; When you see people not guarding the Torah, what is your reaction? (Psalm 119:136) What if you never got to see what happens to those who don't listen to Elohim? (Psalm 119:138) How has Christianity confused us regarding “salvation”? Why did Elohim allow all that horrible stuff to happen to Job? Why do you want eternal life? Are you trustworthy with it? Do you really understand what that life will be like? What is Yahweh's “Love Language”?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. No one understood the connection between Love and Torah better than King David. Yahweh referred to him as the man after Yahweh's own heart. As we continue going through Psalm 119 we see him talking about his love for Torah, how much he values and cherishes the commandments of Yahweh. What did King David mean when he wrote, “Your witnesses are wonders…”? If you are in covenant with Yah, how could wickedness have rule over you? Jeremiah 31:31 – The Covenant – new or renewed? How are you like a teenager to Yahweh?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. As we continue to look at King David, the man after Yahweh's own heart, and his writings starting in Psalm 119:126, Rabbi Steve Berkson teaches us verse by verse to understand the emotions and thoughts King David experienced to cause him to write them down. As we understand, we can apply these emotions and thoughts to our lives. After all, it's through our experiences that Yahweh ‘makes us to understand.' Every organization, corporation, state, country, etc. has a vertical structure with someone or something at the top and those under who are subject to the level above and responsible for those who are under. The Kingdom of Messiah has the same kind of vertical structure. This is necessary for the smooth and functional operation of the forward movement of the Kingdom. This vertical Kingdom structure is in place right now and everyone within the structure should know and understand their function.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. This episode from the beginning of Sukkot starts with Rabbi Steve Berkson taking us to the passage in the Gospel of John, chapter 7, where we see Yeshua Messiah standing up at the day called Shemini Atzerat which finishes the feast, declaring Himself to be the Waters of Life. Rabbi Berkson points out that Messiah said “Anyone who thirsts…” – but does everyone get to drink? From there Rabbi Berkson takes us to John 4:5-15, the story of the woman at the well, where Messiah Yeshua offered Living Water to her and also declared to her, one of only two people, that He was the Messiah. Rabbi Berkson points out the time of day this happened from which he brings a “deeper understanding” as to what the time of day had to do with the story which was the sixth hour of the day. What could be the “hour of man”? From there we go back to Psalm 119, but before he gets into that Rabbi Berkson gives instruction and encouragement in regards to studying the Word. It matters not how you do it – just do it, the way you do it. Then going into Psalm 119 starting in verse 114, Rabbi Berkson reminds us the purpose of taking this psalm verse-by-verse is that you would place yourself in the shoes of King David. You should feel what he felt through the words he wrote. Then you should apply the same love for Torah and place the same value and importance to your walk as he did. Who are the “evil-doers”? How does the Scripture define evil? Rabbi Berkson shows us plainly. Who or what are the “witnesses”? Rabbi Berkson expounds how these impact our lives.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. As we explore Psalm 119, we begin this episode in verse 99 and ask the question, Why would you love the Torah? Rabbi Steve Berkson lists the reasons for giving your love and life to the Torah of Yahweh. Why would King David say that he's smarter than his teachers? What teachers? Did King David have a problem with arrogance? Do you? What does it mean to “restrain my feet”? Doesn't Satan cause me to do wrong? How do you picture Satan, the devil? Would you recognize that creature if it were before you? How does our Creator define evil? How do humans define evil? Do the definitions match? In what way will living in the Millennium be harder for some? What will be taken away from humans once haSatan is bound for a thousand years?

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Continuing in Psalm 119, the question Rabbi Steve Berkson asks of you is, as you read the writings of King David can you feel and think the same way he did? The reason King David has been referred to as a man after Yahweh's own heart is that King David let the same mind as Yahweh be in him, as the apostle Paul wrote in his letter to the Philippians – “let this mind be in you that was also in Messiah Yeshua.” Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

As we look at King David's writings, what becomes apparent is the range of emotions he expresses toward Yahweh and His commandments, statutes and ordinances. Rabbi Berkson shows how to see ourselves in the actions and feelings of those we read and hear about in the scriptures. Not only to see ourselves, but also how to conduct ourselves possibly in a different, better way.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. As he begins this lesson, Rabbi Steve Berkson explains that in the Christian world, it is just love and no Torah, and then asks the question, “What does that look like?” He explains that your expression of love toward the Creator is submission, as Messiah Yeshua said, “If you love me, keep my commands.” What does the movie Charlie & the Chocolate Factory have to do with the Kingdom of Elohim? Rabbi Berkson then turns to Psalm 119 to show us the heart of King David and what he wrote about his love for the Torah of Yahweh.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor. In this episode, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to the book of Psalms, starting in Psalm 11. He points out the contrast between two types of people – those who are called “the wrong”, and “the upright”. Yahweh loves those who pursue righteousness, doing what He has determined is right, and He hates those who know to do right, but don't. Then, moving to Psalm 33, Rabbi Berkson shows us how Yahweh, because of His great love, created everything by the word of His mouth, His Torah. If that was not enough, He takes from His creation a group of humans and calls them His inheritance – those who love Him enough to walk in all of His ways. From there, Rabbi Berkson leads us into the 119th Psalm that was written by the man who was called the man after Yah's own heart. You can see this by the way King David wrote about the Torah of Yah and how he loved it and Him. Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands”, love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Does Yahweh have a “Love Language”? Continuing the focus on our relationship with Elohim, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Deuteronomy chapter 11 to discover if Yahweh has a “Love Language” and if so, can we know what that is. From there Rabbi Berkson moves us to Deuteronomy chapter 13 to show us that Yahweh warned us about those who through deception could take us away from Him. It is our responsibility to have one who is our anointed/appointed teacher so that we can know the real and not be deceived by the false.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? This series is based on the “Two Great Commands”: love Yahweh and love your neighbor. Taking us to Deuteronomy chapter 7, Rabbi Steve Berkson establishes some context for how the two things —love and Torah —are connected. He explains to us how Elohim has established a relationship of love based on an “if/then” principle – if we do what He wants, which is to fear Him, and guard His commandments, then His promises are in effect. What are the three things Torah does for us? What is the plea of Yahweh, and where do we find it? Who's influencing you more, Yahweh or family, friends, etc.? From that question, Rabbi Berkson delves into an in-depth life-coaching session that includes handling situations with others that may have a greater influence on you than they should.

We have a mashup episode today with Dr. Lindsey Berkson and Dr. Scott Sherr sharing their insights on the powerful role progesterone plays in overall health and its critical connection to the brain and nervous system. Dr. Berkson highlights how progesterone supports brain function, immunity, cardiovascular health, nerve repair, and gut integrity and explains how chronic stress and environmental toxins contribute to widespread progesterone deficiency, even in young people. She also challenges outdated hormone practices and stresses the importance of maintaining optimal levels throughout life. Dr. Sherr clarifies how progesterone enhances the calming neurotransmitter GABA, explaining that as progesterone declines, GABA activity drops, leading to anxiety, sleep issues, and mood changes. He recommends natural ways to support GABA and highlights the benefits of using safe, plant-based modulators instead of alcohol or sedatives that deplete GABA and can cause dependency.

What is it that Yahweh is expecting of you? Well, you may say, nothing – because Jesus has done it all for us. Is this true? Why or why not? Beginning this episode in Deuteronomy 10:12-13, Rabbi Steve Berkson presents what it is that Yahweh is expecting of all who choose to walk in covenant with Him. Then going backward a couple of books Rabbi Berkson makes an in-depth dissertation of the Ten Commandments from Exodus chapter 20. From there, back again into Deuteronomy, in chapter 6 where we find the Shema and the Vahavta, as Rabbi Berkson expounds on the foundation of covenant living with our Creator. Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Love and Torah – what's love got to do with it? The reason we exist is to become more like our big brother, Messiah Yeshua. Living our lives according to the two great commandments, love your Elohim and love each other. Continuing in 1 John chapter 3, Rabbi Berkson begins in verse 11 and provides the example of Cain, who was unable to control his own emotions, which ultimately led to the murder of his own brother, Abel. We who are “in Covenant” are expected to treat our fellows also in Covenant with much humility and love, with self-control which is a fruit of the Spirit. Those who do not love their brother do not have everlasting life in them. Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in this passage so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.

Maison Louis Marie (20:00) was founded in 2012 and has never taken on investment, which, according to the married couple behind the brand, Marie du Petit Thouars and Matthew Berkson, has allowed it to focus on slow and steady growth. It is profitable and does not spend excessively on influencer marketing. "We want to be careful with the brand. We really want to create a legacy brand," Berkson said. In 13 years, Maison Louis Marie has grown to sell eau de parfums, perfume oils, candles, diffusers, body wash, lotion and deodorant, among other products. It entered Sephora in 2017. A little over six months ago, it opened its first dedicated retail space, at Platform, an open-air shopping center in Los Angeles's Culver City. According to the founders, Maison Louis Marie's community members love the space and the chance to shop the brand's full collection — a smaller selection of products is carried at Sephora. "People want to smell [things IRL] — yet what each store can carry is so limited, as there are so many brands," said du Petit Thouars. "[At our store] the customer is so excited to [discover] all the things we offer that they're not aware of and to be able to touch, smell and look," said du Petit Thouars. In this week's episode of the Glossy Beauty Podcast, Sara Spruch-Feiner speaks with Berkson and du Petit Thouars about how Maison Louis Marie is meeting the current moment of fragrance mania, how it's working to attract a younger audience with its soon-to-launch hair and body mists, and what drove its first-ever celebrity endorsement. But first, co-hosts Sara Spruch-Feiner and Lexy Lebsack chat about the different ways customers discover new products nowadays, including ChatGPT's updated shopping capabilities, Wirecutter's new beauty vertical and Ulta Beauty's program transforming its salespeople into content creators.

Torah, or “the Law,” often raises questions about its connection to love. Rabbi Steve Berkson begins this teaching series with a song reference, What's Love Got to Do With It, to emphasize his determination to reveal how the giving of the Torah by our Creator and our unwavering obedience to it are intrinsically linked to love. While we may have previously understood love in a certain way, Rabbi Berkson delves into the diverse aspects of love as depicted in our scriptures. Rabbi Berkson examines how the English translation of the Bible often misleads us in using the word “love.” He explores how we can comprehend 'love' from the teachings of the New Testament. Rabbi Berkson begins by examining Matthew chapter 22, where Yeshua highlights the two primary relationships: our connection with the Creator and our relationship with each other. He questions those who argue that the Law/Torah is obsolete, as their argument lacks the means to fulfill the two great commandments. This teaching series promises to provide valuable insights that will support your spiritual growth as you journey toward the Kingdom of Elohim, becoming the kind of person He desires to live with forever.

In Proverbs chapter 3, King Solomon writes to his children to “bind his Torah around their neck.” What does it mean to bind something around your neck? How do you “write” something on your heart? It seems that Solomon is instructing us to take action, but hasn't it “all been done for us”? What are the three things Torah does for us? Rabbi Steve Berkson begins this final episode of the series by expounding on how pursuing the Torah of Yahweh can bring peace into your life. Then, moving into Jeremiah chapter 23, Rabbi Berkson ties it to Proverbs chapter 3 and discusses the responsibility of being a proper anointed/appointed teacher of the scriptures. How did the teachers of Jeremiah's day scatter the people? For what were they being reprimanded and punished? Is there a Messianic reference in this chapter? How is Yahweh going to fix the problem of inadequate and problematic teachers? Moving on from Jeremiah to Luke chapter 8, we see the event where Yeshua, leaving His disciples in charge of getting them to the other side, took a nap. Then a great storm came upon them, causing the disciples to cry out, “Master, we are perishing!” Rabbi Berkson points out a great deal of insight from the telling of this event in the Gospel of Luke that can be applied to our life today. In Colossians chapter 3, Rabbi Berkson teaches about “the Above,” the world that is Yahweh's, and “the Below,” the world that is not His. He provides clear instruction, stating that if you are of “the Above,” raised with Messiah Yeshua, then you should diminish your passion for or any connection with “the Below.” Subscribe to take advantage of new content every week.

Dealing with the idea of “Waiting, Seeking, and Being strong,” Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Isaiah chapter 51 to provide a glimpse of what “His world” will look like. For one thing, “His world” will include those who “pursue righteousness” (vs 1). For another, “His world” will be filled with the Light of His Torah (vs 4). To enter “His world,” we must have expectancy—a hope for all that Yah has promised to those who are His. Then, moving into the Psalms, Rabbi Berkson shows us the one verse that could solve all our fear and anxiety problems. From the Psalms, we move to Jeremiah, chapter 30, where we learn a little about the two houses, Judah and Israel, and that the doctrine of Replacement Theology has no standing in Scripture. Guard. Walk. Do. Sounds like covenant again, right? Rabbi Berkson takes us to Leviticus chapter 26 and shows us the promise of peace in His world through the words of the Creator. Then on to the prophet Micah chapter 4, as Yahweh says His mountain will be above all mountains and His house will be there, from where the Torah will go out to judge and teach all. In this section, Rabbi Berkson has a very different thought on verse 5 that you have probably never heard before.
