The pasuk says in Kohelet, בבוקר זרע את זרעך ולערב אל תנח ידך .The Gemara in Masechet Yevamot learns from this pasuk that even if a person had many students when he was young and vibrant, he should continue trying to find more in his old age. Also, a person should never underestimate the potential of any student. As it says in the Avot d'Rabbi Natan, on one occasion, Hillel Hazaken asked if all of his students had arrived. They told him yes, except for one, but it was the weakest of the group. Hillel told them that one day that student is going to be a leader of the generation. That student was none other than Rabban Yochanan Ben Zakkai. This idea does not only apply to a rabbi with students. Every single person who influences another Jew makes that Jew his student. If someone needs help in learning or in doing a mitzvah, we should look at that as a golden opportunity to gain another student. People are busy with their own spiritual growth and may not want to be bothered with others. But if they would know that helping someone else grow spiritually can be even better than spending the time on their own growth, they would be happy to help. I read a story that was told by the head of a Kiruv organization in New York, who we'll call Rabbi Cohen. One day, a well-known Rosh Yeshiva approached Rabbi Cohen with a request, saying that he needed help with his son. The Rosh Yeshiva had tears in his eyes as he said that his son had gone off the derech. He asked this person if he would be able to help bring his son back. Rabbi Cohen accepted the request and over time he was able to bring the boy all the way back to the level that his father was hoping for. But before Rabbi Cohen agreed to help, he made one condition with this Rosh Yeshiva. He told the Rosh Yeshiva that he himself grew up around people who were not looking to grow spiritually, nor to become great in learning Torah. When he got older, he started becoming more motivated on his own and asked his parents to go to one of the best yeshivot in New York. His parents allowed him to go. When he arrived, he felt completely out of place there. He didn't understand half of what the rabbis were saying in their shiurim. The first few weeks there, he cried every night, feeling totally lost and alone. He then worked up enough courage to ask someone else in the yeshiva to help him with some of the fundamentals that could enable him to grow there. He wanted to understand the Yiddish words the rabbis were saying, as well as how to comprehend the deep Gemara learning. The first person he asked was extremely diligent in his studies and used every one of his breaks for another learning seder. He said he was sorry, but he didn't have the time. He then went and asked someone else who looked like he would be able to help, but that boy also was busy during his breaks learning the Daf Hayomi Yerushalmi. He was completely broken and felt totally out of place with nothing to look forward to. One night he broke down crying and made heartfelt tefilot to Hashem begging him to help. He decided he was going to ask one more person for help, and if that person denied him, he was going to go back to his hometown. The next person he asked replied with a big smile on his face saying, "Of course, I would be happy to help." That person sat with the young Rabbi Cohen every day and taught him "the ropes" until he became a shining star in the yeshiva. It was from there that he became a rabbi in Kiruv and has since brought back thousands of Jews to Torah and mitzvot. Rabbi Cohen concluded his words to the Rosh Yeshiva, "My condition in helping your son is that you should know that the one who helped me with joy become the person that I am today was none other than yourself!" This Rosh Yeshiva understood as a young man the value of helping everyone in need, especially in spirituality. His efforts paid back thousands of times over, and even helped bring his own son back to Torah and mitzvot. We should never underestimate the value of helping another Jew grow spiritually.

Parshat Toldot: Why we get thrown curve balls?!? Campus Kiruv Lo Aleinu!!! Why people have problems with parnasa?!?
Shiur given by Rabbi Yisroel Saperstein. Shiur recorded in Yeshivas Ohr Reuven, Monsey, NY..
This shmooze, sponsored by Smilesforthekids.com and delivered in Mevaseret, addresses the Kiruv methodology of Avraham Avinu. Why does Avraham Avinu seemingly coerce people into acknowledging Hashem? Is that helpful? Does it create meaningful and lasting change? In this shiur, based on a sicha from the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rav Burg speaks about how sometimes we have to face the hard truth in order to unlock who we really are and what we really believe.
Have you ever struggled with spreading an idea or a message? Avraham, the great patriarch of the Jewish people, faced this challenge head-on and won by successfully propagating the concept of monotheism worldwide. But how did he manage to do that? Our episode dives into Avramavino's teaching methods, his patience, strength, and determination, and the lessons we can draw from his journey. This episode unpacks fascinating stories from Avraham's life and his unique method of spreading monotheism, not in large groups but in tailor-made one-on-one sessions. We explore his approach to teaching, the power of small group teaching, and the importance of adapting our teaching methods to suit the learner. Avraham's story is an inspiring example of how each one of us is fit to teach at some level. So, whether you're a seasoned educator or new to the game, prepare to be inspired by Avramavino's teachings and discover how his methods can be applied today.Support the showJoin the WhatsApp community for daily motivational Torah content!

RALPH New Jersey: The Boca Raton Synagogue Rebuke Heard Round The World -RTH #9 https://youtu.be/zJRtVdkRubY Raised in the vibrant Syrian Jewish community of Flatbush, Ralph Safdieh grew up with a traditional understanding of Judaism, whereby he felt he could pick and choose which mitzvot to keep. Marriage and children didn't shift his perspective yet, but running into a seemingly inconspicuous YouTube video changed the trajectory of his spiritual journey. Rabbi Yaron Reuven's passionate rebuke against a controversial decision by the Boca Raton Synagogue struck a chord in Ralph. Impressed by the Rabbi's fear of Heaven and unwavering commitment to the truth, Ralph delved into Rabbi Reuven's lectures, catalyzing an introspective transformation. No longer content with a pick-and-choose approach to Judaism, Ralph, along with his family, embarked on a journey of teshuva. The Safdieh household transformed into one that revered and upheld every Torah law. Inspired by the profound change in his life, Ralph joined Rabbi Reuven's Kiruv efforts, dedicating himself to Torah study with newer students of the Rabbi - a commitment he holds dear to this day. Join us in this episode as we delve into Ralph Safdieh's heartwarming journey from a casual observant to an ardent follower of Torah.

EFRAIM ARIZONA: Gunpoint Burglary, Missionary Conversion Scandal, Barbershop Kiruv RTH PODCAST #3 https://youtu.be/rWm6DVwdT-4 Get ready to witness the most amazing "Barbershop Story" ever! Growing up in Phoenix, Arizona's Bukharian Jewish community, Efraim Uvaydov grew up as a secular Jew, with limited knowledge about Judaism. This changed dramatically when he began receiving a series of messages from HaShem that captured his attention. From defending himself during a burglary to falling in love with a pastor's daughter, to navigating a health crisis and the Missionary Conversion Scandal, his journey was anything but ordinary. The cherry on top was that the only person who could assist him happened to be the world's most intimidating Rabbi, Yaron Reuven. After watching and being inspired, if you find yourself in Arizona in need of a haircut, look for Efraim at one of his Made-Men Barbershop locations: www.MadeMenInc.com. These are the only barbershops that proudly display a huge sign on the wall declaring, "GOD IS GOOD."

Rabbi Yonatan Halevy shares his personal journey to becoming the rabbi of his community and sheds light on the differences between Sephardic and Ashkenazi communities with regards to halacha and hashkafa. He offers insightful solutions to bridge the cultural and religious divide, emphasizing the importance of education in secular matters alongside Torah, as mandated by our tradition. One of the highlights of the conversation is our discussion about Rabbi Halevy's video series, "Crimes of Kiruv," in which he identifies and addresses certain concerns and flaws in the Outreach movement. He elaborates on how a dogmatic approach, religious fanaticism, the argument from authority, and the current phenomenon of fire-and-brimstone bully tactics can be detrimental in the long run for the Baal Teshuva, from a psychological and social standpoint. The Rabbi advocates for a return to fundamentals, tradition, and a healthy approach to Torah, and calls out the troubling trend of religious “cancel culture” mafia. Finally, the episode concludes with a fun and enlightening conversation about Rabbi Halevy's unique religious garb and why he chooses to dress in the manner of old-school Sepharadi Hakhamim. This podcast episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the nuances of Jewish culture and tradition, and for those seeking to explore the challenges faced by modern-day religious communities. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/judaismdemystified/support
Rabbi Abittan would often quote the Baal Haturim on theopening word of this week's portion. “The aleph of Vayikra is written as a small letter because Moshe wanted to write Vayikar (and it happened), the way it is written (when Hashem appears to) Bilaam, which implies Hashem appeared to him only as a chance occurrence. Hashem, however, told Moshe to write the alephwhich indicates His love. Moshe compromised and made the aleph small.” To illustrate let me share a story told by Dr. Alan Morinis, Founder of The Mussar Institute, who is a leading figure in the contemporary revival of the Mussar movement When we come to the synagogue and look upon the hechal, andwe see the words above which may vary from Synagogue to Synagogue, But the words we face are meant to remind us to recognize who we are standing in front of or remind us that we should place Hashem in front of us always - this helps us to temper the run-away ego. I want to share a story I heard yesterday from Rabbi ShlomoLandau. He heard the story directly from the protagonist Rav Chaim, a well know Kiruv speaker in Eretz Yisrael for Arechim – an outreach organization. As you listen to the story, I want you tothink about what you would've done along the way

Rabbi Wildes shares his journey in Kiruv and delves into the reasons behind the lack of engagement of many Jews with Judaism. Is there a place for both a rationalist and mystical approach to outreach? Is blind faith a Jewish idea? What are the difficulties faced by the post-Kiruv Baal Teshuvah who eventually loses his/her initial inspiration?

Should you in invite guests/ Kiruv at your Shabbos Seudos or is at expense of your children's Shabbos experience and your relationship with your children? If someone has different Kashrus standards than you can you eat in their house? What if they'll be insulted if you don't come? What type of a Chezkas Kashrus does a person need to eat by him? If you're a bachur and someone you don't know, in shul, invites you, what constitutes a Chezkas Kashrus? If you know your host is ‘modern' for example he keeps Kashrus, Shabbos and Taharas Hamishpacha, can you eat there? What about if he tells you I bought the highest degree of kashrus for you, is he נאמן? with Rabbi Yitzchok Fingerer – Rov of the BJX Beis Medrash, Morah D'Asra of Brooklyn's Kiruv Center – 25:25 with Rabbi Mordechai Becher – Renowned Lecturer and author – 46:31 with Rabbi Mordechai Farkash – Rov in Bellevue Washington – 1:10:25 מראי מקומות

ABOUT THIS EPISODE Mark Wildes was well on his way to joining his father, a renowned immigration attorney, when he found his life's calling: reaching out to unaffiliated young professional Jews in Manhattan, and innovating for decades in the outreach space. Unique as a proudly Modern Orthodox practitioner, Rabbi Wildes offers a different perspective, which we discuss and evaluate in this episode. We also speak about his new "40 day challenge" - the subject of his latest book - and his other writings, along with his rich family history and dreams for the future of outreach.
