The Maggid Method

The Maggid Method: Rabbi Reuben Poupko


Listen Later

Rabbi Rueben Poupko is Rabbi of Beth Israel Beth Aaron in Montreal, Canada.

His father was a rabbi, and his grandfather was a rabbi, too.

After 43 years, Rabbi Poupko recognizes very well the dilemma that pulpit rabbis face everytime they get up to speak.

So how does a rabbi go about keeping his congregation interested and engaged?

By being a lifelong learner - in terms of substance, and in terms of style.

Rabbi Poupko sees the role of a sermon as multifaceted - sometimes you’re there to teach, but sometimes you’re not teaching your congregation anything new - but giving expression to what’s in their hearts.

In this episode of the Maggid Method - we’re treated to over 4 decades worth of public speaking wisdom, rabbinic advice, and unbelievable true stories from a seasoned pulpit veteran who’s never written down a word of his sermons…

Like - 

- the best speaking tone for delivering a Drasha, 

- how to encourage better behavior,

- which order to speak at a funeral,

- and when to accept that -  some things will just never change.

I learned, laughed and even cried during my interview with Rabbi Rueben Poupko.
