    The Shmuz on Sefira

    Why would 24,000 talmidim of Rabbi Akiva — great men of Torah — be lost over something that seems so simple: a lack of respect? This powerful shiur uncovers what kavod really means — and why it is far more than just good manners. Through Chazal, real-life examples, and sharp insight, Rabbi Shafier reveals that respect is not optional; it is a foundational principle that shapes our relationships, our growth, and our avodas Hashem. From the way we view others as created b’tzelem Elokim, to the role respect plays in marriage and daily interactions, this session challenges you to rethink how you treat the people around you.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

    The Shmuz on the Parsha: Tazria Metzora

    Shiurim on shmiras haloshon aren’t popular. Like exercise or keeping healthy, most think, “yep. I know this. Shouldn’t do it. Not sure I need to listen to a whole shiur about it…” Unfortunately, the parameters of lashon hara are not what you think. Just like eating treif or being mechalel Shabbos, it is one hundred percent forbidden. And it’s easy to see why- we all have stuff in our history that we wouldn’t want “out there”. It makes sense that talking about even true events could cause serious damage to another Jew. But there’s more: did you know it’s relatively easy to stop talking lashon hara. You see, lashon hara isn’t driven by passion, by desire. It’s mostly due to a lack of awareness. By becoming more attentive to what the Torah demands, you can start amassing a serious amount of s’char for yourself. All it takes is for you to become more mindful and aware of what you’re saying.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

  3. At the Foot of Har Sinai: Part 1: A Monumental Moment for Mankind

    4 DGN GELEDEN

    At the Foot of Har Sinai: Part 1: A Monumental Moment for Mankind

    We have a mitzvah to remember Har Sinai, but to do that, we first need to understand what happened on that momentous day. At the Foot of Har Sinai brings the scene to life, capturing the majesty, awe, and unfolding of the events in a vivid and compelling way. While it’s difficult to fully grasp the magnitude of the miracles the Bnei Yisroel experienced, exploring them through the lens of our mesorah allows you to begin appreciating the depth of their joy and the power of Kabbolas HaTorah. In this introductory class, Rabbi Shafier guides you through the defining moment of your history — and shows how Matan Torah continues to shape your life and destiny until today.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

    Living Through the Makkos: Part Four: The Sea Splits

    In the fourth session of Living Through the Makos, Rabbi Shafier guides you through the final makos, describing how we were brought out of Mitzrayim and through the Yam Suf. Of course, you know that there were many overt miracles during the final stages of redemption. What do they teach you for your own outlook on life? When you learn about how Hashem manipulated the waters of the sea, taking care of every detail to make sure we felt cared for and protected, it gives YOU a tremendous chizuk to your own emunah. When you consider how the Mitzrim were confronted with an impenetrable cloud of glory, and yet still didn’t believe in Hashem, you are forced to confront the negias you may be holding onto in your own life. This year, bring your understanding and appreciation for krias yam suf to a deeper level. Free yourself of the restrictions that are holding back your own personal growth.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

  5. Pre-Pesach Shmuz (from the archive)

    Pre-Pesach Shmuz (from the archive)

    We like to think that if we witnessed one clear miracle, everything would fall into place; our emunah, our davening, our clarity. This shiur dismantles that assumption. Through a vivid, almost unsettling reconstruction of Mitzrayim from the Egyptian perspective, Rabbi Shafier exposes a deeper truth: belief is not driven by evidence, but by honesty. Even those who lived through open miracles found ways to explain it away. Why? Because they didn’t want to see. This is a shiur about intellectual integrity, self-deception, and the real barrier to emunah. Listen carefully, and you’ll gain a sharper lens on your own thinking and a far more demanding, but real, path to genuine belief.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

  6. Pesach: People Believe What They Want to Believe

    Pesach: People Believe What They Want to Believe

    Most people assume that one open miracle would change everything. Rabbi Shafier dismantles that illusion. In this gripping shiur, he takes you into Mitzrayim not from the Jewish side, but from the Egyptian side, and asks a startling question: how could people live through blood, frogs, lice, darkness, and Krias Yam Suf and still refuse to believe? The answer is a penetrating look at free will, self-interest, and the human ability to explain away even the most obvious truth. If you want a sharper, more honest understanding of emunah, this shiur will force you to rethink what really keeps a person spiritually stuck.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.

    The Shmuz Live #307 I Know it's True, So Why Don't I Feel It?

    This week’s Shmuz is about Mitzrayim.  It’s about what Mitzrayim looks like in your life right now. The places you feel stuck. The things you’ve just accepted as “this is who I am.” The parts of life that feel impossible to move past. Pesach comes and reminds you that’s not the full story. You’re not as limited as you think. Hashem took you out of Mitzrayim to show you that change is always possible. That a person can grow and become more than they thought they could be. Not sure where to start? Listen now.

    The Shmuz on the Parsha: Parshas Tzav: Master and Servant

    In parshas Vayikra, we learned how the cornerstone of all middos is humility. In this week’s Shmuz, Rabbi Shafier builds upon this fundamental principle by exploring the devastating influence of arrogance. We all agree that arrogance is ugly, but our mesorah goes further: arrogance will inevitably lead a person to forget Hashem. After all, when we’re so sure of our competence and independence, we don’t need a Master. We are in this world to serve Hashem, but when we are consumed by gaaveh, our avoda is ruined, because our intentions define every action. Arrogance will make us hated in this world and empty in the World to Come. It’s the essential work of a lifetime to rid our hearts of it completely, but where do we start? In Master and Servant Rabbi Shafier gives us practical tools that are guaranteed to cut through our illusions of grandeur, maintain our sense of self and reconnect to our ultimate Master and Benefactor.   This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
