  • What is morality, faith, and our place in the world? Not easy questions. Many look to religion to answer these questions. Religion certainly does provide answers but not in the way we're used to. The answers we're given are really only starting points to help guide us on a path to greater wisdom. That path is a difficult one because it demands us to be present. To think outside the box. It demands us to struggle with God as opposed to thoughtlessly receive "the answer." In the struggle and through this tension we grow.This podcast explores these topics and more from the Jewish religious tradition with a psychological perspective. Judaism struggles with justice, belief, and morality spans thousands of years. More than anything, the hallmark of Jewish wisdom is not in it's answers. It's in how it demands questions. ----- Rabbi Yonasan Bender LCSW, received his ordination from Rav Yitzchak Berkovits, head of the Jerusalem Kollel and Aish HaTorah. He is a graduate of Hebrew University's Paul Baerwald School of Social Work. He completed post graduate training in a wide array of therapeutic approaches. These approaches range from CBT to Psychodynamic therapies. Before Hebrew University, he studied at Washington University in St. Louis and Drake University. Yonasan majored in philosophy and ethics.

  • How Truth Is Made

    How Truth Is Made
    2021/10/05

     The definition of truth is not clear cut in Judaism. Is there one "truth" to be grasped or is truth something more organic than that? After giving the Torah, does God have a say in changing the truth found in Jewish law? This class discusses this topic through the lens of the famous debate between Rabbi Eliezer The Great and his students.

  • Surviving Spirituality With Law

    Surviving Spirituality With Law
    2021/09/21

    Jewish parables, refereed to as medrashim, are speckled throughout the Talmud. They're nuanced, esoteric, and captivating. They also contain within them the spirit of Judaism. This course discusses the power of metaphors and parables. It also discusses how Judaism relates to them. With a deep understanding of moral law, these texts open up to us a deep well of wisdom. Without that background, these metaphors remain closed to us, best case scenario. The worst case scenario is they destroy any chance of a truly spiritual life. Wisdom well used gives life. Wisdom misused ends it.

  • Actualization Through Setting Limits

    Actualization Through Setting Limits
    2021/09/07

    Knowing what the right thing is and doing it are extremely different.  God revealed a higher purpose but Judaism's struggle is how to actualize that purpose. How do we build a better life for ourselves?  This class discusses how rabbinical additions to Jewish law actualize Judaism's purpose.  Rabbinic restriction is, in essence, what taps into divine meaning.  By struggling to make God’s law livable we are able to understand God's deeper purpose.
