    Each podcast is wonderful: combining legal, ethical, mussar and mystical traditions. The three crowns of Torah can be actualized in each of us.

    Brilliant
    Rabbi Wolbe demystifies all the essential yet very often esoteric concepts in Judaism, in a crystal clear, engaging and humorous way. What an erudite and brilliant scholar.
  • RockyMountains

    Amazing podcast and highly recommended to everyone!
  • ישראל מניו יורק
    Great Mussar perspective
    Rabbi Wolbe comes from a legacy of greatness in Mussar, which is eminently clear from this podcast, even more than in his others. Careful and thorough treatment of each topic with a clear emphasis on relevance to personal growth and connection with G-d, presented with clarity and sophistication Rabbi Wolbe never fails to deliver. Thanks always!
  • jnech
    Great for all seekers of knowledge!
    How many trips in the car and days of the calendar to receive this teaching? The podcast can be accessed anytime and Rabbi Wolbe is just the best! No longer struggle to learn more about our faith and life with God.
