In this week's episode Rabbi Kohn discusses the benefits of suffering. Although we pray that we should not suffer we must realize the many benefits of being in a challenging situation. We see from the commandment of the Thanksgiving offering  the proper prospective we need to develop. He also takes a lesson from the Parsha on how in life we are always getting closer or further from G-D> There is no middle ground. Subscribe to The Practical Parsha Podcast. For questions or comments please email [email protected].
