Sefas Emes Pesach: Who are the four children of the Haggadah? Why are they central to our Passover experience? What are their questions and why are these questions so important? The premise to answer all of these questions is that these the four children are not external to us; they are within each of us: within each of our hearts, there are four children who ask four distinct questions. What are the four biggest questions on Judaism? 1) The strange laws that we simply cannot wrap our brains ahead. I get the justice aspect of Judaism, but black boxes on my head? 2) How can small people really believe that G-d cares about their actions? 3) I lead my own life and define my own destiny. I dont need G-d. In our world of science and technology, the old needs are gone. 4) I simply dont care.

This radio show, aired on March 14, 2015, presents tips on educating & inspiring your children.
