Neo-Nazis and Antisemites Try to Trash Rabbi Lazer Brody's "Emuna Hour" on Zoom

Here's a 2.5 minute segment of our debut of Emuna Hour from Wednesday evening, Oct. 21, 2020. We must have been ruffling the evil inclination's feathers the wrong way. If you don't believe that Antisemitism is alive and kicking today, then see this...

Spiritual Anatomy: Where Body Meets Soul

This is our debut of Emuna Hour, our new weekly shiur on Zoom that helps us learn and internalize the principles of emuna. The mp3 is unedited, so you can hear how Nazis and hate-spammers tried to crash the shiur between minutes 17:00 and 18:30.

Why Emuna?

Ask anyone you like, Jewish or not, if they believe in God. Most people will answer in the affirmative. Now, ask one of the people who told you that they believe in God, what it means to believe in God. Few will give you a clear answer.
