Hashem’s Call-up

Why did Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka convert to Judaism? Because Hashem offered her a better deal - the Jewish nation is the only nation on earth that God explicitly promises to protect if we perform His mitzvot.

Don’t Stop Praying

The threats from every direction to the Jewish People in Israel and in the diaspora are immense! This is precisely the time to stand and pray – not just that we will be saved from these threats, but that we experience the complete complete Geula (redemption). 

The Adventures of Milo

For a year, my rabbit Milo sat on a balcony and ate. He didn’t do much of anything until we set him free. After he was released, he hopped higher and moved faster than I’d ever seen him. It’s amazing what someone can do when they are in the right place!

There Are No Shortcuts

Hashem Signals our Settlers 

Often, when we look below the surface of what appears to be a dismal situation, we can find the hidden solution. So too, in our current situation in Eretz Yisrael, we see the glimmer of redemption!

My Lot in the Land of Life

This week, Americans celebrate Thanksgiving. Let’s be thankful for being able to live in Eretz Yisrael! The Land of Israel is stronger than all other mitzvot, and therefore it is important to always remember the greatness of living there!
