Chanukah teaches us a powerful truth: no matter how far a person feels, Hashem is still right there. In this shiur, we explore how Chanukah reaches every Jew — especially those who feel spiritually distant, disconnected, or lost.This is a time when even the lowest place can be illuminated. A time when Hashem says, “I’m with you — right where you are.” Chanukah is not only about lighting candles, but about lighting souls — our own and others’.We discuss how Chanukah is uniquely suited for kiruv and self-kiruv, for rescuing lost sparks, and for remembering that no Jew is ever too far to come home. Whether you feel strong or struggling, this shiur is a reminder that the light of Chanukah meets you exactly where you are.Topics include: • Why Chanukah reaches every Jew, regardless of level • How Hashem draws close specifically when a person feels far • Chanukah as a time for outreach — to others and to yourself • The power of lighting hope in dark places

In this powerful Parshat Vayishlach shiur, we uncover the hidden depth behind one of the most mysterious moments in the Torah — Yaakov Avinu’s struggle with the Angel of Eisav. Why was Yaakov injured? Why did the angel attack him and not Avraham or Yitzchak? And how was Yaakov’s limp actually the blessing that saved his life?Chazal reveal that the Angel targeted Yaakov because Yaakov represents Torah, the foundation that keeps Am Yisrael alive throughout history. Torah is what Eisav fears most — and what he tries to destroy. Yet in a stunning twist, the very injury meant to weaken Yaakov becomes the catalyst that protects him from Eisav’s wrath.🔹 Yaakov’s limp was his protection, not his downfall🔹 Eisav approached with love, not war — because of the injury🔹 Yaakov’s battle teaches us that Torah always prevails🔹 Even what looks like a setback can be Hashem’s greatest giftJoin us as we reveal how Torah, struggle, and divine protection come together in one unforgettable moment. This shiur will change the way you understand Vayishlach — and your own challenges.
