It was the perfect shidduch ... or was it? "But Yitz, don't you know who Rivka's father was, and, do you know what kind of a brother she has! And what about her shadchan's own shady past?" Rivka's climb to self-perfection tested every single one of her positive - and negative traits - which underneath it all seem to have a striking resemblance to our very own trials and tribulations. Rebbetzin Heller also spices up this talk with a humorous guide for finding 'the right one' in today's shidduch scene.
It is terribly difficult to understand the sin of the spies that gave over a negative report about the Land of Israel. Could it be possible these great people were motivated by their own honor?

Listen to a different take on Yacov's struggle to avoid being sucked into a culture foreign to his spirituality, and shows how the fear of deteriorating values has everything to do with the establishment of Bikurim.
Moses prayed with all the power of his enormous heart to be able to enter the land of Israel – yet his request was still denied. Was G-d making light the power of prayer? And was this the reward for faithfully leading the Jewish nation for forty years in the desert? This discussion on prayer addresses: the need to give up all aspects of our lives to G-d, our need to pray from the intellect as well as the heart, and a new perspective on what we gain when we’re able to sincerely speak to G-d.
Fossils, dinosaurs and the neanderthal man conjure up images which challenge the authenticity of our Torah. In one of the most amazing lectures Rabbi Wagensberg has ever given, we will soon discover that we were not the first ones to walk the Earth.
Yosef's brothers were speechless and mortified when he revealed himself to them. How could they have missed so many telling signs? Rav Noah makes a powerful point on just how easily we constantly deceive ourselves by ignoring messages sent to us in so many obvious ways.
