from The Shmuz · host JewishPodcasts.fm

Akeidas Yitzchak. An event that continues to shape the Jewish People, giving us endless zechuyos and molding our collective character for all time. What sets the Akeidah apart from, l’havdil, some of the death cults of our enemies? What was the purpose of the test? Why was Avraham’s response so mind blowing? And why is it not considered Yitzchak’s trial as well?The Anatomy of a Nisayon provides the answers to these questions, as well as an encouraging analysis of the purpose of your own challenges. In this Shmuz Rabbi Shafier explains his practical, three point survival guide, giving you much needed clarity, chizuk and understanding to withstand the darkest moments of your life.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
