Rabbi Kelemen – Shares how during this time period where we say Selichos – we need to learn how to “do” them and not just say them. Hashem infused our World and very being with rachamim (mercy).

Rabbi Kelemen – Shares as we approach Rosh Hashanah that this year’s teshuva is different than ever before. This teshuva is taking the path of recognizing our Creator through the unity of Jewish people in the wake of the October 7th tragedy (that is still ongoing). This is different than the teshuva we may have been “used to”. This new path has put us on a path to personal and national redemption.

Rabbi Lawrence Kelemen shares the truth behind X-mas & New Years Eve and why Jews should re-consider their current viewpoint and disposition towards them. Perfect timing!
Personal Thoughts: The Rabbi gave me a unique perspective to contemplate on my personal uniqueness and why I am here and what role I have to play. This helps give me direction in a sometimes random-seeming directionless life. Help yourself get a life compass and watch and enjoy.

Personal Thoughts: I had no idea the true background of these two holidays. The Rabbi showed me a clear explanation with solid backing on my somewhat innocuous viewpoint. Glad I became educated. Highly recommended particularly considering the timing. On a side note, here is a somewhat misplaced “Short Clip” that I thought should be categorized here, “The 9th of Teves!?” – Interesting mashal (story) on why the 9th of Tevet was a day of fasting and its relation to Christianity – https://www.youtube.com/embed/NqkM-QfMxuI?start=650&end=1075&autoplay=1
