Erev Shabbos Drush

THE MESSAGE OF THE TALKING DONKEY IN PREPARATION FOR THE  3 WEEKS.

Understanding how  many of us  make the  same unthinkable mistake that the spies did. Based on the teaching of the Chofetz Chaim. Hear an amazing story on how the Chofetz Chaim & His son-law Rav Tzvi Hirsch Levinson's belief in an orphan helped him believe in himself. 

Based on the Nesivos Shalom pg. 52-53. Why does  Hashem punish the jews so much for complaining and wanting to eat Kosher meat ? What is worse : A Jew who does not sin, but wants to be far away from Hashem; or a Jew who feels  terrible  as he  is  sinning ? 2 great stories about 1) keeping Shabbos; and 2) The Chutzpa of a Rasha to a tzaddik. 

Eulogy on the Passing of Rav Gershon Edelstein zt"l

WHAT CAN YOU DO ON SHAVUOS IF YOU HAVE FAILED TO ADEQUATELY PREPARE BEFOREHAND ?

Lessons from the Jews' desire for the flags. How does a person get assistance for having his  desires be fulfilled? Be careful what you wish for on Shavuos, as seen from the Story about the Rambam  and the poor teacher.

Based on the teaching of R' Shalom Shwadron . What is  the test of keeping Shmittah if you are given  a triple crop in advance ? Great Story with the Ba''al Teshuva who was prepared to die for Hashem.

Understand why one can eat Chametz on Pesach Sheni? What is the contemporary message of Pesach Sheni ? How can one increase the chances of getting your prayers answered on Lag Ba'omer ? story of the Chafetz Chaim & his attempts of saying Kiddush Levana.

Can You Answer the riddle in the beginning of this  recording ? Why would  Hashem command us  to not worship metal gods? Who would  be foolish enough to do that? Based on the teachings of the Mai Shiloach. The importance of exposing the bias that causes us  to worship our comfort zones.
