  Israelis Need Some Pampering [Inbox / Issue 744] Contrary to what the author of the Lifetakes about the level of materialism available in Israel today might think, having access to creature comforts like a choice of laundry detergent or ice cream flavors does not have to detract from a person’s potential spirituality.

In part two of this important topic, Rabbi Schonfeld and Rabbi Garfield continue their discussion about gemara with Rav Aaron Lopiansky. How do you reconcile the Torah's view of the age of the world with the theories that the scientific community suggest? How should we be teaching children that eisav soneh Yaakov practically, when they might have regular interactions with the umos haolam? And the BIG QUESTION: How do we relay to boys who are struggling with gemara that they are as equally as important as the metzuyanim?

On our first ever episode, Rabbi Schonfeld and Rabbi Garfield discuss the burning questions parents have about raising their children. Is there any validity to the opinion that forcing middle school boys to go to shul on Shabbos is the way to go? When your child reports "facts" that don't line up with that the teacher says, who do you believe? And the BIG QUESTION: Is it possible my son is not cut out for Gemara?

Ask your spouse. Ask your children. If they feel safe enough to be honest, they’ll tell you whether your ambition inspires them or isolates them

It isn’t actually a new issue. It comes up every few years when Elul falls out so early on the secular calendar
