  • Shavuot with the Chief: Becoming a creator
    May 29 2025

    On Shavuot, we receive the power to create ourselves. Pirkei Avot reveals something life-changing: Torah is the tool that God used to create the world. And it is the tool that He gives us to create ourselves.

    It is not just a set of laws. It is a framework for becoming. A sacred blueprint for shaping character, building values, and growing into the person we are meant to be.

    Discover the Torah not only as a book of rules, but as the blueprint for a life of meaning, purpose, and creativity.

  • South Africa’s cursed President in the White House
    May 26 2025
    The Oval Office confrontation between President Ramaphosa and President Trump served to highlight the appalling failures of South Africa’s ruling elite. In this powerful and painful video, Chief Rabbi Dr Warren Goldstein confronts the full moral weight of what that moment revealed — not just about political failure, but about human suffering. The murder epidemic in South Africa is not a white genocide, nor a black genocide. It is a human genocide. And it has unfolded, for three decades, under the leadership of a government that has failed in its most basic duty: to protect its people. With courage and clarity, the Chief Rabbi calls out the moral collapse of South Africa’s ruling elite, the shocking Constitutional Court ruling on hate speech, the spiralling vigilantism and private security, and the haunting spiritual symmetry between Ramaphosa’s global humiliation and the ANC’s slander against Israel. This is not just a political video. It is a moral reckoning. #SouthAfrica #ChiefRabbiGoldstein #Ramaphosa #TrumpRamaphosa #WhiteHouse #KillTheBoer #SouthAfricaCrime #Genocide #Justice #HumanRights #MiddaKenegedMidda #Israel #TruthToPower

  • The Impermanence of Life | Parsha with the Chief
    May 23 2025

    What does the fleeting nature of life teach us about gratitude, loss, and the search for purpose?

    This week’s parsha, Behar-Bechukotai, contains a prophecy of exile and return. But beneath that national story lies a personal one. The story of the soul.

    Drawing on Pirkei Avot, the laws of shemittah and yovel, and powerful Torah insights, we explore a deeper understanding of exile — not just as historical punishment, but as a spiritual framework for human growth.

    Because we’re not here forever. We are strangers and sojourners. But that doesn’t make life meaningless. It makes it urgent, sacred, and full of potential.

    Listen now for a Torah perspective on struggle, impermanence, and redemption.
