MyLife: Chassidus Applied

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics:
What does this time period and Torah portion teach us today?

• How do we apply the journey of the Jewish people in the wilderness toward the Promised Land to our life journey?
• What do we learn from the sin of the scouts about facing the challenges in our life’s journeys?
• What can we do during today's war and unrest to not repeat the same mistake as the scouts?
• After the sin of the scouts, why were the Jews not given a chance to do teshuva?
• Is it possible that the Geulah will be delayed due to our mistakes today?
• What do we learn from lighting the menorah until the flames rise on their own?
• What is the deeper meaning behind the Jews’ complaining that they want meat?

• Is Canada different than the USA?

• Why not conquer all of Gaza and settle it with Jews?
• Are we allowed to launch missiles from our backyards into Gaza to help the war effort?
• Should we try to shower the Gazans with kindness?
• Should Israelis living near the border check their mezuzahs?

Should we move to Israel? Are our prayers helping free the hostages and win the war in Gaza?
