Parshas Ki Sisa: The Love of Money

from The Shmuz · host JewishPodcasts.fm

In today’s society, you are relentlessly bombarded with two fallacies: One, that money equals happiness, and two, that your sense of self should be defined by your net worth. The Torah rejects both of these ideas, yet this week’s parsha shows that the attraction to money is inherent in the briah. In this uncomfortably relevant Shmuz, Rabbi Shafier challenges you to take a long, hard look at how you judge yourself and others—are your attitudes toward money aligned with Torah hashkafa? Or are you constantly chasing the next best thing, hoping it will finally bring you the elusive satisfaction you crave? This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
