In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues in the Gate of Remembrance from Orchos Tzaddikim (Day 104, top of page 611), presenting three daily remembrances to sharpen spiritual awareness. The tenth calls for a daily accounting: Did you follow your yetzer hara (evil inclination) or your Yotzer (Creator)? He urges listeners to serve Hashem more than themselves, and if they've fallen short until now, to begin immediately with full effort. The eleventh contrasts the frantic energy people pour into earning money—waking early, obsessing day and night, and valuing only business connections—with the minimal effort often given to the soul, which is eternal. Rabbi Wolbe shares a personal anecdote about a donor who offered charity only in exchange for business leads, highlighting how worldly pursuits can corrupt even good deeds. He warns that wealth often brings more harm than happiness and is ultimately temporary, while the soul's enrichment lasts forever.The twelfth remembrance is that Hashem sees and knows everything—every thought, intention, and private moment. Just as one prepares meticulously (haircut, fine clothing) to stand before a king or the Supreme Court, how much more should we prepare to stand 24/7 before the King of Kings? Rabbi Wolbe cites Joseph dressing properly before Pharaoh and a former secular hostage who began praying Shema daily in a dark bunker, proving closeness to Hashem is possible anywhere. The episode closes with a bonus reflection on truth in Torah and life: multiple perspectives can be valid (elu v'elu divrei Elokim chayim), as in marriage, parenting, or halacha. Parents must honor each child's unique path (chanoch l'na'ar al pi darko), recognizing different gifts and challenges without comparison or unfair expectations.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 24, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on November 16, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Proverbs 27:23, 28:1-5, Ezekiel 30:26, Hebrews 13:1-21. The Christian community, the church, is the community of our Lord Jesus, the ‘great Shepherd of the sheep' (Hebrews 13:20) Each local church is called to be a community of the great Shepherd

Scripture: Hebrews 11:23-26 Series: "Don't Shrink Back" 

Some early Christians were shrinking back from following Jesus amidst persecution. So, the author of Hebrews encouraged them to endure and remain faithful to Christ by offering a collection of Old Testament witnesses. If God did amazing things through their faith, why would we ever shrink back from our own? Focus: Will you choose the eternal reward of Christ or the temporary pleasures of this world?

In the sixth message of our series called Feasts, Mel teaches about the Feast of Atonement (Yom Kippur). This message centers on the profound significance of atonement as described in Leviticus 16 and its fulfillment in Jesus Christ. Drawing from Leviticus 23:26-32, Mel explains the ancient rituals of Yom Kippur, where the high priest, Aaron, entered the Most Holy Place to offer sacrifices for the sins of Israel, including the scapegoat that symbolically carried the people's sins into the wilderness. He highlights the gravity of approaching God's presence, referencing the deaths of Aaron's sons and the massive veil separating the Holy of Holies. Mel connects these Old Testament practices to the New Testament, emphasizing Hebrews 9:11-15 and 10:19-22, which portray Jesus as the ultimate High Priest and Lamb of God, whose sacrifice tore the veil and opened direct access to God's presence. He underscores that Christ's blood, unlike the temporary animal sacrifices, provides eternal redemption, inscribing believers' names in the Lamb's Book of Life (Revelation 3:5), inviting all into a reconciled relationship with God through faith.

Matthew Week 118     2 Corinthians 4:5 ESV   5 For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.       Matthew 20:29-34 ESV   29 And as they went out of Jericho, a great crowd followed him. 30 And behold, there were two blind men sitting by the roadside, and when they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, "Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!" 31 The crowd rebuked them, telling them to be silent, but they cried out all the more, "Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!" 32 And stopping, Jesus called them and said, "What do you want me to do for you?" 33 They said to him, "Lord, let our eyes be opened." 34 And Jesus in pity touched their eyes, and immediately they recovered their sight and followed him.                       Mark 10:46-52 ESV   46 Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples, together with a large crowd, were leaving the city, a blind man, Bartimaeus (which means "son of Timaeus"), was sitting by the roadside begging. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"   48 Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"   49 Jesus stopped and said, "Call him."   So they called to the blind man, "Cheer up! On your feet! He's calling you." 50 Throwing his cloak aside, he jumped to his feet and came to Jesus. 51 "What do you want me to do for you?" Jesus asked him.   The blind man said, "Rabbi, I want to see."   52 "Go," said Jesus, "your faith has healed you." Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.       Luke 18:35-43 ESV   35 As he drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. 36 And hearing a crowd going by, he inquired what this meant.37 They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by." 38 And he cried out, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" 39 And those who were in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!" 40 And Jesus stopped and commanded him to be brought to him. And when he came near, he asked him, 41 "What do you want me to do for you?" He said, "Lord, let me recover my sight."42 And Jesus said to him, "Recover your sight; your faith has made you well." 43 And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.       Matthew 8:28 ESV   28 And when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men met him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce that no one could pass that way.       Philippians 4:4-7 NIV   4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.       Luke 4:17-19 ESV   17 And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written,   18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,   because he has anointed me   to proclaim good news to the poor.   He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives   and recovering of sight to the blind,   to set at liberty those who are oppressed,   19 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."       Hebrews 12:1 ESV   Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,       John 21:20a; 21-22 ESV   20 Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them... 21 When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, "Lord, what about this man?" 22 Jesus said to him, "If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow me!"

October 1, 2025 - Wednesday PM Bible Class   In this episode the speaker walks through Ephesians chapter 4, transitioning from the doctrinal foundation of the first three chapters to the practical, everyday implications for Christian living. The talk highlights major themes including the spiritual blessings we have in Christ, reconciliation between Jews and Gentiles, and the central call to unity in the church. Audience interaction (including remarks from Gary, Neil, Bob and others) helps illustrate the points and keeps the session conversational. Key doctrinal reminders include the seven "ones" (one Spirit, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God) and the idea that Christ has ascended and given gifts to the church. The lecture examines the roles named in the text — apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors/shepherds and teachers — and explains their purpose in equipping the saints for ministry and building up the body until unity and maturity in Christ are reached. The speaker emphasizes the character qualities that promote unity: lowliness, gentleness, long-suffering, and above all humility. Practical application covers putting off the "old man" and putting on the "new man" through the renewing of the mind, resisting false teaching, and pursuing spiritual growth (moving from milk to meat). Concrete behavioral instructions are discussed at length: speak truthfully, manage anger ("be angry and do not sin" — deal with conflict quickly and avoid giving the devil a foothold), stop stealing and work to give to those in need, and avoid corrupt talk. Instead, believers are urged to be kind, tenderhearted and forgiving, following Christ's example and remembering that they are sealed by the Holy Spirit. Other themes include church growth as a result of every member contributing their gifts, the importance of mentorship and teaching, and biblical counsel on discernment and maturity (references to Hebrews and Romans are used to underscore growth expectations). The episode closes with a challenge to live out the contrasts of Ephesians — old vs. new, death vs. life — and practical encouragement to pursue unity, holiness and loving service within the church.   Duration 40:31

Nehemiah 4 tells of the mockery that comes from the Jews' enemies in an attempt to discourage them from the work of building the wall. Nehemiah makes it a matter of prayer to his God. Likewise, the people of the LORD were not diverted from the work. The enemies next threaten sabotage and open attack upon the rebuilding work. This too fails because of Nehemiah's diligence and the measures he takes for constant surveillance and the protection of the builders. Nehemiah places each family working on the wall directly in front of their home. Each worker works with a weapon in one hand.Hosea 14 tells of a plea to Israel to return to Yahweh. The nation needs to consider why they had been smitten and to find suitable words to request God's healing and forgiveness. Then the Almighty's anger will be turned away. In poetic language the prophet describes how blessings will return to Israel. In forsaking idolatry and learning the just and upright ways of Yahweh the faithful will thrive and experience the bountiful blessings of our Lord Jesus Christ's coming kingdom.1 Thessalonians 3verses1-5 Paul tells us of the sufferings that the Apostle experienced in Athens. Next Paul informs his readers of the great encouragement and comfort that Timothy brings him; and it is the news of the Thessalonians' magnificent response to the gospel. Note how the chapter finishes - read aloud verses 12-13 and pause, and ponder. Chapter 4 speaks of how pleased God and Paul are with the way that the believers are living their lives as a witness to their faith and to their trust in God and His Son. The love the Macedonian believers show to each other is evidence that they have learned what God's Word teaches. They needed to keep working until the Lord Jesus' return. These believers did, however, have a wrong view about the order of events after the Lord's return. The living believers will have no time advantage over those faithful who had fallen asleep in Christ i.e. died. Verses 13-18 describe what happens at Christ's return to the earth. Jesus will come with angels and the trumpet of God (1 Corinthians 15verses52-53). Those believers who are alive when he comes will be caught up together with those believers who have been raised from the dead, into a great cloud of witnesses (see Hebrews 12verses1- 2). These believers will be caught into the air i.e. aerial, in the sense that, together with their Lord Jesus Christ, they will be the rulers (or those elevated to be in authority) over the people of the earth - i.e. the subjects of that coming kingdom. What a comfort to those who are now suffering persecution.Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow

“RESTRICTED: How God Heals What Tightens, Misaligns, and Slowly Steals Your Run”Episode Description:In this powerful teaching, Pastor Joe Moss II reveals one of the most overlooked spiritual truths: Most people don't fall apart suddenly — they fall apart slowly, quietly, through tiny roots that tighten around their lives.Using two unforgettable metaphors — the strangler fig and the runner's kinetic chain — Pastor Joe shows how sin, trauma, old habits, and unaddressed pain work just like hidden restrictions in the body. Tightness anywhere affects movement everywhere. And the pain you feel is not always the true source of the problem.In this message you will learn:• Why sin starts small but grows into spiritual restriction• Why pain sight and pain source are rarely the same• How hidden tightness affects your spiritual “stride”• How God restores alignment, freedom, and full range of motion in your soul• How to break free from the roots that quietly wrap around your life• How to run your race with endurance, strength, and purposeThis episode includes a powerful time of reflection, repentance, and spiritual release — leading to a moment where God restores your stride and breathes freedom into every restricted place.If you feel spiritually tight, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from God… this message is for you.Scriptures referenced:James 1:15, Song of Solomon 2:15, Proverbs 4:23, John 1:5, Psalm 139:23–24, Hebrews 12:1–13Host: Pastor Joe Moss IIFounder, Make God Famous ChurchCreator of Wrestle Well | BlessBody Fit Academy | RARE Leadership

God Became Human to Enable Jesus Followers to Have a Personal Relationship with Him through His Grace and Gift of the Holy Spirit MESSAGE SUMMARY: As Jesus tells us in John 15:12-14, that you, as His follower, are His “friend: “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends.". God became flesh, and He dwelt among us. God became human to draw you into a personal relationship with Him. In John 1:14, the Apostle John identifies Jesus as the “Son of the Father”: “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.". God alone can satisfy the meaning and purpose of your life. God alone can satisfy your hunger to know your life's meaning. Most importantly, God alone can give you forgiveness of your sins as Paul tells us in Colossians 2:13-14: “And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.". Jesus' life, miracles, death, and His resurrection are invitations to a life-long personal relationship with God, the Creator of the Universe. Our personal relationship with God is through His gift, to followers of Jesus, of the Holy Spirit.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Surely it is God who saves me. I will trust in Him and not be afraid. For the Lord is my stronghold and my defense, and He is my savior. Therefore, you shall draw water with rejoicing from the springs of salvation. And on that day, you shall say, “Give thanks to the Lord and call upon His Name; make His deeds known among the peoples; see that they remember that His Name is exalted.”. Amen. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be ashamed of the Gospel. I will not be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ for it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes (including me).

Grace means underserved kindness. It is the gift of God, to all, the very moment he or she sees they are unworthy of God's favor. D.L Moody - Bible in a Year: Ezekiel 1-4,  & Hebrews 11:1-40 

NOVEMBER 15- TODAY'S READING FROM THE ONE YEAR BIBLE- EZEKIEL 31:1-32:32; HEBREWS 12:14-29; PSALMS 113:1-114:8; PROVERBS 27:18-20   Commentary written and read by Pastor David K.

When you pray in tongues, you're not speaking confusion — you're speaking alignment. In this powerful message, Ps Paul unpacks the supernatural connection between praying in the Spirit and walking in divine provision, breakthrough, and bold faith.Discover how praying in tongues positions you in God's flow, strengthens your inner man, and releases the power of the Holy Spirit into every area of your life — from your finances to your relationships.

What if the difference between a stale spiritual life and a steady, joyful walk is as simple as showing up? We dive into the biblical heart of fellowship and unpack how Acts 2:42 forms a clear pattern for a thriving church: Scripture-centered teaching, genuine community, shared meals and communion, and real prayer that happens face to face.We talk candidly about why livestreams can never replace embodied presence, how staying after service becomes fertile soil for prayer and encouragement, and why serving is a powerful way to move from shy to connected. Drawing from Hebrews 10:24–25, we make the case for meeting together to “stir up” love and good works, especially when life is heavy. You'll hear practical, doable on-ramps—Sunday worship and adult Bible classes, midweek prayer as a midweek oasis, men's and women's gatherings, small groups, and simple hospitality that turns a meal into ministry. If you work Sundays, we share creative ways to stay plugged into the body so you continue to give and receive the care God designed for you.We also explore 1 Corinthians 12's picture of one body with many members, showing why every gift matters and how isolation robs both you and your church. With Proverbs 27:17 as a guide, we highlight how “iron sharpens iron” through honest conversation, shared work, and loving accountability. Come ready to trade a solo faith for a shared journey where people know your name, carry your burdens, and point you to Christ.If this resonates, share it with a friend, subscribe on your favorite platform, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Contentment does not come naturally. As today's devotional and prayer remind us, many of us grew up wanting things we didn’t have, or lost things we wished we could keep. Vivian Bricker shares how her mother taught her and her sisters early on that contentment is not about what you own, but about the posture of your heart. When you understand your limitations—and God’s limitless provision—you begin to release the constant pressure to have more, do more, or be more. The Apostle Paul understood this well. In Philippians 4, he explains that he learned to be content through both abundance and need. His contentment wasn’t tied to fluctuating circumstances but anchored in the unchanging strength of Christ. True contentment comes not from possessions, comfort, or stability, but from knowing Jesus deeply and trusting Him fully. In Christ, we are spiritually rich, even if we are materially lacking. When we train ourselves to find satisfaction in Him alone, we discover the peace the world cannot give—and cannot take away. Today's Bible Verse: “I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength” (Philippians 4:11-13). Takeaway Truths Contentment is learned; it doesn’t come automatically. Jesus Himself is the source and secret of contentment in every circumstance. You have all you need because you have Christ. Let’s Pray Dear Jesus, I come before You today asking You to help me to be content in all circumstances. Whether I have plenty or I am in need, please help me to be content. In truth, I have all things through You. Whether I'm rich, poor, needy, or well fed, I have enough because I have You. Help me remember this rather than falling into the cycle of wanting what I don't have. You are truly the best thing in this world, and You have given me all things. Thank You, Jesus, for always being with me through every circumstance and helping me to become more like You in word, speech, and thought. Help my heart to reflect You and to show You to the lost world. I will be content in all circumstances because I have You, which is the greatest blessing of them all. In Your Name, Amen.

There is a clear distinction between "Israelites" and "Hebrews" in the Bible and secular writings from antiquity.  It's a mistake to homogenize the two.  It's also a mistake to extrapolate from the Exodus passages that either Hebrews or Israelites were practicing Judaism at this time.  Judaism did not exist yet, and a careful examination of the life of Moses and his family history will clear up a lot of the confusion that surrounds this topic.  VF-2514 Exodus 18 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at PastorMelissaScott.com Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

In Part 1 of our brand-new series, The Merge, Pastor Alvin challenges the common view of salvation as merely escaping punishment. Instead, he invites us to see it as something far more profound: a total, transformative merging of your life with Christ. This is the radical choice to surrender everything and live fully as a "living sacrifice." Following Jesus isn't a casual commitment; it requires us to count the cost and confidently believe that His will is infinitely greater than any comfort or desire we might have to give up. Discover why Jesus' invitation to follow him is never without commitment—and why those "strings attached" are actually the foundation of the most abundant, good news you'll ever receive. Scripture references: Hebrews 12:2 Romans 12:1-2 John 15:6 Luke 14:25-33

In this episode of the Thinking Talmudist Podcast on Bava Metzia 85a, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe delves into the profound theme of suffering, mercy, and redemption through the stories of Rebbe (Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi) and Rabbi Elazar ben Rabbi Shimon. Rebbe, inspired by Rabbi Elazar's preserved body due to accepted suffering, voluntarily endured 13 years of excruciating illness—six of tzmirta (a beet-based treatment for urinary stones) and seven of tzfarna (thrush)—to attain spiritual merit. Despite his stableman's wealth and the deafening noise of feeding animals to mask Rebbe's cries, seafarers heard his agony. Yet Rabbi Elazar's suffering was deemed superior: it “came through love and left through love,” while Rebbe's stemmed from a specific incident. A calf, led to slaughter, sought refuge in Rebbe's garment and wept; Rebbe dismissed it, saying, “Go, for this you were created.” Heaven responded: no mercy shown, no mercy received. Thirteen years later, Rebbe's maid swept baby weasels; he intervened, citing Psalm 145:9—“His mercy is upon all His works”—and Heaven declared, “Since he shows mercy, We will show mercy.” His afflictions vanished.The Gemara contrasts their merits: during Rabbi Elazar's years in the attic, no one died prematurely; during Rebbe's 13 rainless years, the earth stayed saturated—radish holes brimmed with water—proving the tzaddikim's pain sustains the world. Rabbi Wolbe highlights the mystical power of 13 (love, unity, the 13 Attributes of Mercy, Torah hermeneutics), noting Rebbe's 13-year ordeal mirrored this divine framework. Posthumously, Rebbe sought Rabbi Elazar's son—a stunningly handsome youth prostituted by harlots—and entrusted him to his uncle for Torah study. Though the boy initially resisted, he grew into a sage; Rebbe applied Proverbs 11:30—“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life”—to both teacher and student. Burial dramas underscored merit: Rabbi Elazar joined his father Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai in the cave (earned by shared suffering), but his son was barred by a serpent—Heaven clarified it was due to lacking cave-endured pain, not lesser righteousness._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way.

Jase gets lovingly roasted by a self-proclaimed “dork” who calls him out for talking too much and he has to admit, it's true. The listener's tongue-in-cheek “Unashamed Drinking Game” exposes all the guys' funniest and worst habits, leading Zach to suspect it might be a Robertson family member secretly trolling them. The guys pivot to a lively discussion about why unity in Christ matters more than denominational lines and how Jesus' resurrected body defies description yet fills us with hope for our own resurrection.
