About this listen

Real conversations about Jewish prayer — what it means, why it matters, and how it can bring calm, clarity, and connection into everyday life.

Tefilah Today explores the depth of Jewish prayer through Torah, Midrash, and Chazal. We break down the meaning of the Siddur, uncover the sources behind our tefilot, and explore how prayer connects us to Hashem.

Whether you’re seeking a deeper understanding of Jewish prayer, hoping to strengthen your kavanah, or simply wanting to appreciate the wisdom within Tefilah, this podcast is for you.

Hosted by Mrs. Baila Yaniv.
