Can miracles signal a match made in heaven, or do true love's foundations lie deeper? Join us for a heartfelt tribute to the late Rabbi Wallerstein, a visionary of the Ornava movement who infused humor and wisdom into the journey of finding a life partner. We explore his lighthearted advice, shared annually on Parshas Chayei Sara, about miraculous signs during Shidduch dates. Discover how his storytelling intertwines with timeless teachings, reminding us that good midos (character traits) are the real magic in building meaningful relationships.

As we celebrate Rabbi Wallerstein's legacy, we delve into the teachings of Unkelis and the Brisker Rav, shedding light on the essence of true love beyond the spectacle of miracles. Through the lens of Rivka and Yitzchak's story, we uncover the profound impact of virtuous deeds and godly actions in the world of Shidduchim. Listen in as we reflect on how Rabbi Wallerstein's insights continue to guide us toward recognizing the true measure of a successful match, where character reigns supreme.

Decisions of Refinement: Folding Your Tallis, Setting the Table, or Checking Your Phone

Ever wondered how the choices you make today could shape your legacy tomorrow? Our latest episode explores the powerful metaphor of Noah's life and decision-making after the flood. Rabbi Yerucham and Rashi's insightful commentary on Noah's choice to plant grapevines first serves as the cornerstone of our discussion. Is it the sequence of our actions that define us as people of purpose or does it mark us as mundane? As we transition from the solace of Shabbat to the demands of a new week, we invite you to reflect on those first actions and the values they project.

Join us for a captivating conversation that examines the small yet significant decisions in our everyday lives. What does prioritizing the transient joys over the essentials that sustain us mean? We look into the choices that frame our identity, from setting the table for Melaveh Malka to reaching for the phone at week’s end. This episode challenges you to consider your actions and the legacy they create. Are you setting the stage for a life of higher calling or caught in the routine cycle? Discover the profound impact of your choices and redefine what truly matters.
