Podcasts about Outreach

Ron Carpenter Television week of 06/22/2024.

When God finally opens the ark's doors after the Great Flood subsides, something shocking happens: the women refuse to have children. Despite being the only humans left on Earth, Noah's family goes on a "baby strike," terrified that their offspring might repeat history's mistakes. Their reasoning? Even righteous Adam and Eve produced a world so wicked that God had to wash it away.Rabbi Epstein uncovers the profound psychology behind this post-apocalyptic anxiety, exploring why the wives feared they couldn't control their children's choices—and how this reflects every parent's deepest concerns. But here's the twist: God had to switch from His attribute of justice to mercy to convince them the world was worth rebuilding.The Hebrew text reveals something English fails to capture: spelling variations that reveal hidden meanings, and the revolutionary moment when burnt offerings literally changed God's mind. This episode tackles the ultimate questions: How do we find hope after devastation? When is it right to bring children into an uncertain world? And what does it really mean when the Torah says we're born with evil inclinations?From the secret reason animals were commanded to leave the ark to the profound truth about why teenagers get their "good inclination" at 12 and 13, Rabbi Epstein masterfully weaves together ancient wisdom and modern parenting dilemmas. Discover how Noah's animal offering created an "appetizer" for human transformation that echoes through every generation.

John Maytham is joined by Craig Parks, producer of the Urban Outreach Concert, to talk about how this unique Artscape initiative is bringing world-class performance right into the heart of Cape Town’s communities. With the spotlight on Athlone this year, the concert offers a professionally staged, free-to-attend celebration of local talent — hosted at the Athlone Community Centre. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists. A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.

In this episode of the Parsha Review Podcast, we explore the Torah portion Shalach, focusing on the story of the twelve spies sent to scout the land of Israel. Ten of the spies return with a negative report, causing despair among the Jewish people, which leads to the tragic establishment of Tisha B'Av, a day marked by historical calamities. In contrast, Joshua and Calev offer a positive perspective, highlighting the importance of faith in Hashem's promise. We delve into the mitzvah of Tzitzis (fringes on four-cornered garments), recited twice daily in the Shema, which serves as a visual reminder of all 613 commandments. He explains that Tzitzis, with their numerical value and structure (600 plus 8 strings and 5 knots), symbolize the entire Torah, encouraging spiritual mindfulness and adherence to God's laws, particularly for men, as the mitzvah is time-bound and not obligatory for women.We emphasize the power and danger of the eyes, which can lead to holiness or temptation, as cautioned in the verse urging not to stray after one's heart or eyes. We connect this to modern challenges, where technology and social media, designed to be addictive, can draw people away from their values. Drawing from personal anecdotes, such as a student wearing Tzitzis discreetly and his own experience in Jerusalem's marketplace, he warns against the spiritual risks of unchecked visual intake. We advocate for mental engagement with Torah to guard against boredom and temptation, citing the practices of tech CEOs who limit phone use for productivity. We conclude by urging listeners to control their eyes, create a personal sanctuary for Hashem, and recite the Shema daily as a reminder to stay focused on holiness, praying for divine protection and a blessed Shabbos._____________This episode (Ep 7.34) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Shelach is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on June 17, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 19, 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.

I Know. We are all feeling it. The war in Israel and our brothers and sisters suffering in bomb shelters as missiles mercilessly rain down upon them. In our class today we share chizuk and ideas to help us gain clarity and focus as jews always do in the face of evil. Along the way we come face to face with those who put their mouths and false pretenses before the truths their eyes are showing them.

Unlock the profound wisdom of Jewish tradition and discover the mitzvah of owning Torah books with us. In this episode, we embark on an exploration of Siman 28 of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, discussing the sacred obligation of writing or commissioning a Sefer Torah. We'll also reveal how acquiring other Jewish texts, like the Chumash, Mishnah, or Gemara, can fulfill this mitzvah, even for those who cannot commission a full Torah scroll. We'll highlight the accessibility of these sacred texts through publishers like ArtScroll, emphasizing their role in making Torah study available to all.As we continue our journey, I'll take you through the historical and cultural tapestry that underscores the reverence of holy books and scrolls within Jewish communities. Learn about the halachic guidelines that govern the handling and storage of sacred texts, as well as the practices that reflect these guidelines—such as standing when a Torah scroll is carried and ensuring holy books are treated with respect. Delve into the communal learning traditions shaped by the historic rarity and expense of these texts, and how these practices have helped preserve their sanctity over the ages.Finally, we'll explore the respectful use of Torah books and Judaica, focusing on the limitations and proper disposal practices that honor these sacred items. Discover the nuances of handling holy writings, including the respectful rebinding of books and the ethical considerations when purchasing sacred items from non-Jews. Through engaging discussions and insights, this episode illuminates the importance of upholding reverence for our treasured Torah books, ensuring their dignified treatment for generations to come. Join us for a meaningful reflection on these timeless practices that keep the sanctity and reverence of our sacred texts alive.To have your questions featured on the Ask Away series, please submit your questions at askaway@torchweb.org_____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #41) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

Think you need thousands of followers to launch your online course? Think again. In this episode, I tackle one of the biggest myths I hear all the time: that you need a big list or massive audience to make a successful course launch. I break down what actually matters (spoiler: it's quality over quantity), how to test your idea with the audience you already have, and real-life stories of people who launched to engaged, niche followings with incredible success.   You'll learn: ✔️ Why you don't need a big list to launch successfully ✔️ What “engaged audience” really means ✔️ Real-world examples from small but mighty launches ✔️ How to grow your list without stalling your momentum

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, we discuss the recent preemptive Israeli military operation against Iran, named "Am Kelavi" (Rising Lion), drawing a parallel to a Torah verse from Numbers 23:24 that likens the Jewish people to a lion—resilient, patient, yet fierce when provoked. He recounts the biblical story of Bilaam, hired by King Balak to curse the Jewish people, only to bless them instead, highlighting divine protection and intervention. We emphasize that Israel's strength lies not in its military or intelligence prowess alone, such as the Mossad or IDF, but in its spiritual connection to Hashem (God). He reflects on the open miracles witnessed on June 13, 2025, referencing Iran's earlier ballistic missile attack on April 14, 2024, which allowed Israel to refine its defenses. We underscore that the Jewish people's true power stems from their faith, prayers, and adherence to mitzvahs (commandments), even amidst adversity, as they remain under divine guardianship.We further explore the concept of spiritual transformation, tying it to the number 40 in Jewish tradition, symbolizing renewal and creation, as seen in events like the 40 years in the desert, 40 days of rain during Noah's flood, and 40 weeks of gestation. We share a poignant story of a boy who intended to save a piece of cake for his mother but ended up with only crumbs, illustrating that even small, imperfect efforts are cherished by God if done with sincerity. We encourage listeners to seize the current miraculous times as an opportunity to deepen their relationship with Hashem through small acts of mitzvahs, emphasizing that every Jew's efforts, no matter how small, contribute to the nation's spiritual strength. The episode concludes with a call to action to break from complacency, embrace mitzvahs, and trust in divine guidance, with the hope for peace and the coming of the Messiah._____________Recorded from a live audience presentation in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) in Houston, Texas on June 13, 2025.Released as Podcast on June 16, 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 us as we explore the vital trait of eagerness, alacrity, or "zerizut," and its impact on both spiritual and everyday life. We'll discuss how eagerness can propel us towards fulfilling mitzvahs and serving Hashem effectively, using examples like Moshe and Pinchas to highlight the importance of avoiding negative influences. We'll also examine the role of repentance, emphasizing the need for patience and caution in our actions to achieve true perfection. Striking a balance between quick action and careful consideration is key, as too much haste can lead to mishaps both spiritually and practically.In our conversation, we contrast the traits of eagerness and laziness, recognizing eagerness as a powerful tool for achieving great things efficiently, while understanding how laziness can sometimes be strategically employed to avoid undesirable actions. We discuss the importance of channeling our energies towards positive endeavors with urgency, allowing less important tasks to naturally fall by the wayside. We conclude with a heartfelt wish for divine blessings, encouraging listeners to prioritize and approach the right tasks with both speed and enthusiasm, ultimately using eagerness as a tool for success in all areas of life._____________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)Recorded from a live audience presentation in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) in Houston, Texas on February 10, 2025.Released as Podcast on June 16, 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.

Can setting aside a few moments each day change your spiritual life? In our latest episode, we explore the transformative power of daily Torah study, as highlighted in Siman 27 of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch. With life's demands constantly pulling us in different directions, we discuss the necessity of dedicating time to study, whether it be a brief verse or an in-depth halacha. We share insights on how this practice can act as a spiritual safeguard and a source of strength, even through life's trials.Together, we unravel the beautiful synergy between supporting Torah study and engaging with it firsthand, inspired by the biblical partnership of Zebulun and Issachar. Our conversation reveals how even small acts of learning, when time is scarce, can bring immense spiritual benefit. By focusing on basic Jewish law, Agadah, and Mussar, we can foster personal growth and character development. We also highlight structured learning schedules like "Chok L'Yisroel" or "A Daily Dose of Torah" as tools to help integrate Torah study into our daily routines.The episode concludes with a powerful reflection on the holiness of Torah study. We emphasize the merit found in merely speaking the words of Torah aloud, a practice that deepens our spiritual connection and comprehension. Even when understanding is elusive, the effort put into studying Torah is treasured by Hashem. We invite you to join us in discovering the joy and wisdom of Torah, encouraging both young and old to approach this divine learning with enthusiasm and a prayerful heart.To have your questions featured on the Ask Away series, please submit your questions at askaway@torchweb.org_____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #41) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

John McKee delivers the June 2025 Outreach Israel News update. Today's Messianic people, who are a part of Messianic Jewish congregations and synagogues, do not know how blessed they actually are. Many Messianic people do not have a Messianic assembly to attend, and as such usually have to fellowship in various other ways. Some of this may involve participation in a church, or a small home fellowship. What are some of the difficulties and challenges which need to be recognized, especially as we think about the future?

"The very fact that a general problem has gripped and assimilated the whole of a person is a guarantee that the speaker has really experienced it and perhaps gained something from his sufferings. He will then reflect the problem for us in his personal life and thereby show us a truth." - Carl JungThe Head of Engagement and Outreach at American Business Media, Andrew Berman is joining us yet again to act as co-host to go through our very own Jay Doran's book, Thirty Days of Thought.  Today, Andrew and Jay are getting into the value of writing things down.  Though the technology exists to type or record, there is still something to be said for good old-fashioned penmanship.  We hope you enjoy this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.

What if everything that happens to you, even the seemingly bad, is ultimately for your own good?" Join us on this spiritual journey as we explore the profound themes from the Talmudic tractate of Brachot, focusing on gratitude, repentance, and the power of spiritual connection. Through Leah's heartfelt gratitude upon the birth of Judah, we uncover the layers of divine generosity and the importance of giving thanks for blessings, whether grand or modest. This episode also navigates the intricate world of blessings tied to food consumption, shedding light on how even the act of eating can become a spiritual practice.Names carry weight in Jewish tradition—more than just labels, they hold stories and significance. We embark on a thought-provoking exploration of names and perspectives, drawing lessons from King David's resilience and understanding of adversity. By comparing the reactions of biblical figures like Esau and Reuben to their lost birthrights, we delve into the essence of identity and gratitude as reflected in ancient texts. The narratives remind us of a moral imperative to confront wickedness, offering a deeper understanding of our own identities through the names we bear.Personal stories enrich our exploration of naming practices, weaving a tapestry of tradition and personal preference. From a young man advised to embrace his second name to our own anecdotes about naming our children, we highlight the delicate balance parents must strike. The responsibility of naming a child, free from external pressures, is emphasized as we express gratitude for our journey through Torah and Talmud wisdom. Join us for an uplifting discussion that concludes with heartfelt wishes for a peaceful journey and a great Shabbos for all our listeners._____________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.

Our Parsha begins with the commandment for Aaron to kindle the Menorah, the intricately embellished, seven-branched candelabra hewn out of a single block of gold. Towards the Parsha's middle, we read about the set of silver trumpets that Moshe made, again hewn out of a single block of silver. The only other item with this requirement is the set of golden cherubs perched atop the Ark's Cover. Why must these items be made in this unusual fashion? Why cant the Menorah's branches be made separately and welded together? Why cant the golden cherubs be created separately and subsequently attached to the Ark's Cover? In this fascinating podcast we propose a novel explanation that reveals the deep insight for the things that must be created by omission, and contrast it with the sukkah that has the opposite requirement: it cannot be made by hollowing out a mound of material to form the sukkah's walls and roof.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –This Parsha Podcast is dedicated in honor of our dear friend and dedicated Parsha Podcast listener Steve Horak on the occasion of his birthday this week sponsored by his children Meirav and Ahron and granddaughter Libi.

Women are generally told that if they have a breast cancer diagnosis, they should steer clear of estrogen. In this episode, I have a conversation with Dr. Swati Kulkarni, the lead investigator of a new study in which women with a newly diagnosed breast ductal carcinoma in situ, DCIS, were given a month's worth of hormone therapy before standard treatment to see the impact it would have on developing cancer cells.  What DCIS is and how it is typically diagnosed. If DCIS is considered to be a pre-cancer or a cancer If DCIS is untreated, how often it will progress to invasive cancer  If treated, how often women with DCIS go on to develop invasive cancer?  Why this particular form of hormone therapy, conjugated estrogens and bazodoxifene (Duovee™) was used in the study The details of the study The results of the study  The Promise Study: A presurgical randomized clinical trial of CE/BZA vs placebo in postmenopausal women with ductal carcinoma in situ.

In this episode of What the Fundraising Podcast… Joining Mallory today is Jill Vorndran, a fundraiser at Covenant House. She held a variety of leadership roles within the organization for 26 years and contributed to the movement's effort to grow support, financial stability, and brand awareness. She joined us today to talk about the importance of relationship-based fundraising.  In an era where inboxes are full but the attention is overextended, relationship-based fundraising stands out as both a grounding force and a powerful stimulus for impact. When fundraisers have the space to lead with genuine connection, they create an environment where the donors feel seen, valued, and invited to become a part of something meaningful. In a moment of uncertainty, this approach becomes vital because it represents trust, consistency, and care.  In this episode, you will be able to: - Learn about the impact of stress and fear responses in fundraising practices. - Discover the importance of staying connected to donors in challenging times. - Learn about the importance of self-care as a leader. - Learn how fear-based fundraising environments lead to short-term thinking and emotional burnout.  Get all the resources from today's episode here.  Support for this show is brought to you by Donor Perfect.

After a year at Sinai, the nation is finally on the move. Following the precise protocol of disassembly and decampment, the nation marches off from Sinai. Destination: Land of Canaan. At least that was the plan. More about that next week. In this week's podcast we explore the events surrounding the Nation's journey from Sinai. We examine Moshe's unsuccessful attempt at cajoling Jethro to remain with the nation, the strange feature of the backwards facing nuns, and the inexplicable nostalgia that the nation exhibited for Egypt. Assembled together, we learn about a fantastic superpower of the evil inclination that's stymies and stifles our ability to easily overcome difficult challenges.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: 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.
