FREE GIFT! Online Torah Study For Kids & Adults (Torah Live)

0:58It's tough to teach people today because, more or less, everyone's like a kid today, and we have a very difficult time focusing because we have distractions. You have the phone, you have the iPad, you have the notepad, you have this pad, you have the TV; you have all types of things distracting you, and it's tough. This is also part of the reason why we make some of our videos in a movie format. Because it's to capture your attention for those five or ten minutes and give you the chizuk to keep going closer to Hashem for the rest of the day. But to learn halacha, to learn the laws, whether it's how to blow a shofar, or what Lashon HaRa really is... because everyone, you know, is confused about what Lashon Hara is, generosity, different things like that, that get a little bit more complicated. Why? Because it involves a lot of intricate details, and the person that learns it knows that you have to learn a lot of information, and then be smart enough and have enough siyata dishmaya to condense it into a format of five or ten minutes.

2:11Now, I believe that no one is doing it better than Torah Live. It's an organization that I've been familiar with for a little while. They are a wonderful organization. They're run by Rabbi Roth, a serious Talmid Chacham and a very nice person, too. He started the organization and called me the other day; we spoke for a little while. And he invested his own money into this organization. I mean, one of the main ways that they have this organization utilized is by yeshivot. Different yeshivot use Torah Alive's curriculum. in order to, you know, teach their kids. If the old-fashioned way is not working for some people, some kids want a tablet, some kids want something interactive. They don't want just a book. You obviously have to always stick to the book, but they want something more too. So some schools have been utilizing Torah Live's curriculum.

3:16To teach, but they also made it available for the average person, especially during this whole COVID-19 period, where a lot more people are on the internet. I can tell you personally, my own kids have been listening to Torah Live for, I don't know, the last year or so, maybe less. And they amaze me. I watch some of the videos with them, and I always love the videos. But aside from that, I see how my kids react to these videos, and some other people that I recommended to, how they react to these videos, and they absolutely love it, and it impacts them. Now, one of the most difficult things in recommending people is that many times people tell me, "listen, why don't you host my friend? He's a rabbi. He wants to maybe come to your shiur." I always say, thank you, but no thank you. Why don't you do something? You know, an event with such-and-such rabbi. Thank you, but no, thank you. Why? Because if I do an event with you, that means I have to vouch for you. Now, if I know you and I know that you're an ish emet, I don't mind. I'm more than happy to actually, you know, we did some things with Rabbi Reuven Zaki. Yichye ben Shmuel another I know who they are, but somebody I don't know, I can't do it. Why? Because if you come back next week or next month and

4:31and you start becoming like Mirvis or like some of these other people that distort the Torah, then all the people that I recommended, they're going to fall with you. So I can't do it. One of the beautiful things that I've noticed time and time again with each and every single video that Rabbi Roth has made at Torah Live is that it's Emet. They teach Emet when it comes to Mussar. They teach Emet when it comes to Halacha. They teach Emet, which is absolutely beautiful. Beautiful to see it available to the English-speaking public. You know, some of this material is available in other languages, and other organizations have it. But in English, in my opinion, this is really the one that has it. I recommend it for both adults and children, not just for children. Now, you could go to their website, toralive.com, and sign up for free, or you could be smart and get even more than that. How? By being a Be'ezrat Hashem student and watching the shiur today. Because now it means you're going to get a special code that will give you a lot more access. and get even more than that. How?
