August 14, 2024 Inside "Akiva Nichamtanu" with Baruch Levine
Song: Akiva Nichamtanu

Sung by Baruch Levine

Inspiration by Baruch Levine

As we stand here right after Tisha B'av, we can't help but wonder if this will actually be the last Tisha B'av.
Every year we yearn and try to better ourselves with the hope that Hashem will bring us out of this galus, but then Tisha B'av comes again and we're left asking ourselves "What now?!" But just as quickly as the fast ends, a new hope arises with the famous words "Nachamu Nachamu Ami". What is this nechama, this consolation? Baruch Levine takes us into the well known gemara with Rabbi Akiva and the famous words "Akiva Nichamtanu! Akiva Nichamtanu!" through his beautiful song. May this year actually be the last Tisha B'av we ever have to mourn, and may the redemption turn this day of sorrow into a day of great celebration.

Song: Yidden

Sung by Chaim Ghoori & Mendy Worch

Inspiration by Chaim Ghoori

Over the last year we have seen an incredible amount of ahavas yisroel. When we are able to put our differences aside and look deeper into another Yid, we will find someone who is so precious and so pure. Rarely a song comes out and shines this light on every Yid the way the song "Yidden" does. Produced by Thank You Hashem, it is a song that has helped Yidden around the world see the greatness of their fellow Jews, as well as the greatness within themselves.

Song: Tefillas HaShlah

Composed by: Yitzy Waldner

Sung by: Yitzy Waldner & Yaakov Shwekey

Inspiration by: Yitzy Waldner

Erev Rosh Chodesh Sivan is a special day to daven for the spiritual success of our precious children.

Written by the Shlah Hakadosh, Rav Yeshaya Halevi Ish Horowitz, over 400 years ago, this tefilla speaks of the yearning and hope of every Jewish parent, to have righteous and successful children.

I reached out to composer Yitzy Waldner to talk about his personal inspiration behind the beautiful song "Tefillas HaShlah" he wrote for his daughter's wedding, and subsequently sang with Yaakov Shwekey on his "Musica" album.

May we all be zocheh to raise zerah chaya v'kayama and have only nachas from our children.
