Hope. What would life be without it?

Without that inner confidence — that no matter what happens, things can get better. That even when something breaks, it can be mended. Rebuilt. Renewed.

But where does hope come from? Why are we so drawn to it? Is it just wishful thinking — something we cling to because the alternative is too bleak? Or is there something deeper at work?

Hope is not fantasy. It’s not naïve. It’s the voice of the soul — reminding us that we’re never stuck, never alone, never beyond repair.

But how do we access and cultivate that voice, especially in times of darkness?

These are not just abstract questions. They touch the very core of our lives. Because when you have hope, you have strength. You have direction. You have the power to rise again.

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson as we explore the mystery and the promise of hope. Because your song must never stop singing.

We’ve all cried in life.

Loss, disappointment, heartbreak — tears born of deep pain and inner anguish.

But the real question is: What do you do with your tears?

Sadness can crush us. It can demoralize, paralyze, even break our spirit. But it can also awaken us. It can stir growth. It can become a catalyst for transformation.

In truth, your life is defined not only by the joyous moments, but by how you respond to the difficult ones — how you carry yourself in the darkness, how you channel your tears.

Tears are inevitable. But they are not meaningless. They can be seeds — planted in the soil of the soul, destined to bloom into something greater.

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson in this essential discussion as we explore the soul’s journey from pain to purpose.

Why are some religious people so obnoxious? I hear this question often. It’s no wonder religion gets at times a bad rap. And it does seem strange, doesn’t it? If faith is meant to elevate us, shouldn’t it make us more refined, sensitive, kind, and gentle?

Yet time and again, we see people—sometimes in the very name of religion—acting in ways that are anything but inspiring. Of course, no one is perfect. But this is a serious issue we can’t ignore.

Religion has shaped civilization for millennia and still plays a central role in countless lives. Yet religion and faith, like all beautiful and powerful experiences, can be abused and distorted by flawed human beings, which in turn has caused so many to have a deep distrust of religion—and of religious people. Some even carry profound wounds—what we now call religious trauma. What we need to learn is how not to throw out the baby with the bathwater.

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for an honest, vital conversation to understand why religion, which should bring light, so often casts a shadow. And more importantly—how we can move past the pain, discard our toxic experiences and reclaim our spiritual integrity and rebuild a healthy faith that heals instead of harms.

Can you live forever?

This is a question human beings have asked since the dawn of time. From the ancient pharaohs, who buried their wives, families, and treasures with them in the hope of securing eternity, to today’s cryogenic freezing of DNA and other strange attempts to discover the fountain of youth—people have tried everything imaginable to outsmart mortality.

Look around us: the booming pharmaceutical industry, Botox, plastic surgery—all driven by the desire to slow down, mask, or even reverse the aging process. We spend fortunes trying to look young, to feel young, to hold back the inevitable. But despite all this, has anyone truly figured out how to conquer death, the ultimate end of mortal life?

And yet, beneath all these efforts lies a deeper longing. Every one of us yearns to make an impact, to leave a lasting, eternal mark on this universe. We don’t just want to exist—we want to matter forever.

Is that really possible? Is there a path to a life that transcends time?

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for this essential and timely conversation that touches each of us at our core. Together, we’ll uncover the spiritual principles that reveal the path to true immortality.

If you looked at a region plagued by war for thousands of years, what would you conclude? That peace is impossible? That conflict is inevitable?

That’s the case with the Middle East—a land soaked in blood and tears, going back to biblical times. From the battles around the Promised Land, to the destruction of the First and Second Temples, to the Crusades, to centuries of conflict between Muslims, Christians, and Jews—it seems like a region doomed to eternal strife.

And yet—that’s not the full story.

Yes, the Middle East has been the cradle of war. But it’s also the birthplace of the three great monotheistic faiths. And that is the key.

This is not just a geopolitical or territorial conflict. It is a spiritual one. And the true resolution will not come through politics or power—but through the fulfillment of a deeper, divine vision: a world of harmony, not just peace. Unity without erasing our differences. A time when "nation will not lift sword against nation," and Jerusalem will become a beacon of light for all humanity.

That is the end of the story.

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson in this vital conversation because the peace of the Middle East is not just their story—it’s all of ours.

Now that Israel and Iran have agreed to a U.S.-brokered ceasefire, the question on everyone’s mind is: What comes next?

Will this ceasefire hold?
Will Iran truly abandon its nuclear ambitions?
Will it recognize Israel’s right to exist, cease developing ballistic missiles, and genuinely pursue peace?
Or is this simply a pause — a strategic delay in a deeper, ongoing conflict?

We’ve yet to hear any form of unconditional surrender, as some have demanded. So we ask: Is this the beginning of something new — or just the calm before another storm?

The best-case scenario? A true and lasting peace. Imagine: a Middle East no longer defined by conflict, but by cooperation, coexistence, and mutual respect. A shift so profound, it would reshape not just a region, but the entire world — ushering in a new global order grounded in unity and dignity.

The worst case? The tensions persist. But even then, history teaches us: every war ends. Ultimately we will enter a new Messianic age. The question is — how quickly?

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson as we explore the deeper meaning behind this moment — the spiritual, historical, and geopolitical implications of this conflict and victory. Let’s uncover what lies ahead in this historic crossroads, and its cosmic meaning.

We are living in historic times. The war that began between Israel and Iran on June 13th is more than just another conflict — it is a turning point in history. This isn’t a battle that began weeks ago, or even decades ago. It’s the latest chapter in a millennia-old struggle — a war that has shaped and shaken the Middle East for centuries.

Now, for the first time, a new horizon is emerging. Imagine a Middle East without war. Without terror. Without fear. Nations once at odds — now building, cooperating, cross-pollinating. It may seem impossible, but it is no longer a fantasy. We are witnessing the labor pains of a new world being born.

As with every transition, there is pain. And our hearts grieve every life lost. But in the larger picture, the dismantling of evil clears the path for something greater: a world of possibility, of growth, of light.

This is not just geopolitical. It’s cosmic. Emotional. Spiritual. We are standing at the threshold of a new era.

Are you living a life that expresses your true individuality—or are you conforming, imitating, living someone else's script? Are you singing your own song, or the one others handed you?

Too often, our lives are shaped not from within but by the expectations of parents, peers, society—external forces that define who we are, or who we should be.

One of the most heartbreaking truths is captured in Oliver Wendell Holmes’ haunting words: “Alas, for those who die with their song still inside them.”

Some of us don’t even realize we have a unique song—because we’ve been conditioned from early on to silence it, to fit into molds not our own.

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for a vital conversation: How to discover your voice. Your authentic self. The inner flame that rises on its own. 

You were born an original. Don’t die a copy.

How would you rate your self-esteem? Your self-confidence?

And I don’t mean arrogance or ego. I’m talking about something far deeper — a quiet dignity, a calm confidence, a sense of being truly comfortable in your own skin. A deep awareness of your own inner nobility.

You can be brilliant, emotionally intelligent, even gifted in countless ways — but without that inner sense of worth, those gifts will always remain somewhat distant, underutilized, even hidden. Because if you don’t believe in yourself, how can your strengths shine?

So the question is: How do we build that inner dignity? Is it even possible — especially if you grew up in a home or community that didn’t instill it, or worse, undermined it?

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for a vital discussion on how to uncover the divine majesty within you.
