Discovering the Spiritual Opportunity of a Human Moment
When things are clicking and you’re feeling inspired, well, it’s just great. But here’s the problem: that’s not reality. Life is messy, challenging, and often leaves you exhausted and uninspired. What to do then? It is precisely then that you have a real chance to finally do what G‑d always wanted you—and the entire world—to do.

Beyond Taking Offense
You may feel a moral urge to speak up against an offensive action. But might you have a legal responsibility to deter someone from certain behaviors? Judaism says: Yes. In this lesson, we discuss why and when.

Whatever Your Reason, Keep at It. Eventually It’ll Rope You In
Conventional wisdom would say that if you’re studying something for the wrong reasons, you shouldn’t study it at all. But that’s not what the Torah says. And that’s because there’s a unique dynamic at play: the Torah is G‑d’s wisdom; eventually, it’ll awaken something inside of you.

Beyond Personal Freedom
With 613 commandments in the Torah and myriad rules expounded in the Talmud, can Judaism ever be called “liberating”? Let’s delve into the Exodus, the covenant, and the ways in which laws can lead to the purest human freedom.

You Can’t Control the Result, but You Can Certainly Control the Process
In one the Bible’s most rousing stories, a weeping childless woman makes a solemn vow to consecrate her son to G‑d, should she be so blessed. The woman is Chanah, and the son the prophet Samuel. From what would appear to be a dubiously legal move, we learn that parents must do their utmost to guide their children along the proper path.

Beyond Lawful Ownership
Is the claim of ownership anything more than a subjective social agreement? A foundation of Chassidic thought is that material possessions contain spiritual energy that is specific to their owners. Let’s consider the owner’s rights and responsibilities through this lens.

Why Jews Spend So Much on Their Religion
Jews do Judaism with grandeur. Thousands on an etrog, fine china for Shabbat dinner, and gilded synagogues that match the finest architecture anywhere. But why? Because we understand that when it comes to our relationship with G‑d, only the best will do. Anything less may not be lacking, but it is wanting—and we’ll have none of that.

Beyond Presumption of Innocence
While a presumption of innocence can protect defendants from liability, it is not quite a declaration of uprightness. Jewish law goes so far as to presume every person’s core goodness. See how this view can lead us to a truly upright world.

G‑d Doesn’t Only Pay Attention to Big Things and Important People
“Omnipresent” is a word thrown around as a name for G‑d, which is a fancy way of saying, “He’s everywhere and always paying attention.” It’s a great name: G‑d really is paying attention to everything He created, and He cares very much about what they do—including you.
