G-d Isn’t an Accountant
Why One Mitzvah Is Better than a Thousand Sins
With Rabbi Ari Sollish
Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Tuesday, August 20, 2024

Accepting bribes is an objective ethical no-no. G-d, too, takes no bribes, the verse tells us. But some form of bribes He does take: the power of teshuvah, repairing our relationship with Him, will always be accepted on High.

Journey of the Soul 2024
Lesson 2: Taking Leave
With Rabbi Ari Sollish
Recorded Live at The Torah Center ATL on Wednesday, August 21, 2024

Is death painful for souls? Is my presence felt when I visit a grave? Judaism’s pre-burial and burial rituals accompany the soul’s gradual transition from a limiting physical life to a completely spiritual one. We discuss those rituals and how, once freed, the soul’s connection to the living continues in new and powerful ways.

Portal to Infinity
To Activate the Magic, You’ve Got to Follow the Recipe
With Rabbi Ari Sollish
Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Tuesday, August 27, 2024

Many find the high level of detail in Jewish observance frustrating, or even petty; could an infinite G-d really care if I light Shabbat candles a minute later or earlier? Well, actually, the answer is yes: deviating from the recipe will not bake the cake!

Election 2024
Lesson 2: Immigration & Security
With Rabbi Ari Sollish
Recorded Live at The Torah Center ATL on Monday, August 19, 2024

Election season is in full swing and the biggest issues facing our country are front and center. In this new series we cut through the politics to examine five critical issues through the lens of Torah wisdom.

In our second lesson, “Whom Shall We Welcome,” we learn a wise and sensible Jewish approach to the immigration debate. How do we balance the value of protecting human dignity and opportunity against the value of protecting the interests of one’s own citizens? Should we as a society tilt toward tightening immigration policy or loosening it up? We will look at a number of real case studies taken from Jewish history and come away with fundamental principles that can be applied to the question of border security.
