Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – Shares about the main way to get connected to Hashem is through saying “thank you” aka as gratitude. Chanukah is a lesson in thank you. Mitzvot are a lesson in thank you. Learning and following halachot (Jewish Law) are a lesson in thank you.

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – Shares a very interested perspective about Tzedaka and the power it has to open doors to many things in our lives. This is from the perspective of Rav Nachman of Breslov.

In this !Short Clip! (please watch until the end of video for an amazing story at the end that just happened), Rabbi Kalmus focuses on the possibility that maybe Hashem wants us to pray all day (and not just check a box that we prayed) and also on the feeling of why we may feel crippled in our life in general and how that drives us to pray more. Throw yourself on Hashem and He will take care of you completely.

How? With kedusha.
Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – More towards the second half of this class, Rabbi Kalmus shares about the importance of focusing on the good – not only the good in our situation but the good in ourselves at all times.
