  • Amazing Shiur

    Rav Shlomo has a unique ability to captivate the listener about Kibush HaAretz and our relationship with Eretz Yisrael.

    What I appreciate most is that this is not merely an academic study of historical events. Rav Shlomo helps listeners understand how these texts speak directly to our lives today. Through his thoughtful explanations, the conquest and settlement of the Land become more than stories of the past—they become a framework for understanding our present challenges and opportunities as ... more

  • Many will recoil…

    Many will recoil at much that is said in this series. But all is said with such personal honesty and, more importantly, sound factual basis that it just might cancel the noise of habitual thinking and bring us all closer together and closer to the elusive Good we all want, despite our temporary disarray .

  • There’s no one talking like this in the Jewish world

    This is for people who feel exhausted by the same shallow hasbara and talking points flooding their feeds, and are looking for something deeper, more honest, and more rooted in what it actually means to be a Jew right now. Rav Shlomo has a rare way of opening up conversations that most people are afraid to have about galut, consciousness, courage, Aliyah, and who we’re capable of becoming as a people.
