Why would 24,000 talmidim of Rabbi Akiva — great men of Torah — be lost over something that seems so simple: a lack of respect?

This powerful shiur uncovers what kavod really means — and why it is far more than just good manners. Through Chazal, real-life examples, and sharp insight, Rabbi Shafier reveals that respect is not optional; it is a foundational principle that shapes our relationships, our growth, and our avodas Hashem.

From the way we view others as created b’tzelem Elokim, to the role respect plays in marriage and daily interactions, this session challenges you to rethink how you treat the people around you.
