Project Likkutei Torah 3-Year Cycle תו"א/לקו"ת Rabbis Yaakov Cahnman and Avraham Katz Join us as we complete the entire Torah Ohr and Likkutei Torah of Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi, aka the Ba'al HaTanya in just 3 years.Affectionately referred to by many as "The Chassidishe Parsha", these discourses allow one to get a fundamental grasp on the entirety of Chabad Chassidic thought that pertains to any given Parsha, Holiday, or Shir HaShirim. Rabbi Avraham Katz brilliantly divides the entire work so that each week one is able to learn at least one discourse that relates to the weekly parsha or proximate holiday, while at the same time completing the entire Likkutei Torah on Shir HaShirim. The classes are taught by esteemed Rabbis Nissan Dovid Dubov and Chaim Wolosow, clearly reading the Hebrew text following the English translation phrase by phrase, allowing the listener to follow along in the original text if they would like. Zera Shimshon on the Weekly Parsha Steve Rabbi Shimshon Nachmani wrote his epic work "The Zera Shimshon" over 300 years ago. He blesses the person who studies this work: “And with your eyes you will see children, and the children of your children, like olive trees around your tables, wise and knowledgeable; and houses full of everything good; both wealth and honor will not cease from your offspring”.    Rabbi Chaim Kanievski, zatza"l says learning this Sefer twice a week is a true Segula to help one receive salvation and blessing.    "Come for the Segula, stay for the Torah". Many people become aware of life changing insights while learning.  Partners In The Gospel Podcast Chris Gould Partners in the Gospel is an interview program heard every Wednesday afternoon at 4:00 pm on KGFT.

Laws about Lashon Hara Raina Balsam The Laws of Loshen Hara are there to guide us on what to say and what not to say. In 1873 Rabbi Yisrael Meir Kagen compiled these laws into two books: “Chafetz Chaim”, which means “Desirer of Life” and “Shmirat Halashon”, translated as “Guarding the Tongue”. Speaking kindly is the basis of loving everyone. Rav Yehudah Zev Segal divided these laws into a daily study cycle, so it stays at the forefront of our minds. May this learning elevate the Neshama of Moshe Mordechai Ben Pinchas. Join the chat to have each one delivered directly to you! https://chat.whatsapp.com/BOO6h7SMjgLERUmbWG17C6
