Around The Shabbos Table EP. 1 | Is that really righteousness?

We need a new approach to how shabbos meals are run. 

Many people look forward to Shabbos as a time of rest and family bonding but they are only disappointed week after week after very frustrating meal times. Kids don't want to be there, Parsha sheets just don't make the cut, and the conversation just usually ends up being about work.

We found that the most inspiring, fun, engaging, and informative meals at our home were those that the conversation was flowing. 

Conversations were always oriented around the Torah perspective on things happening in the world.  The children were always engaged and the guests were comfortable sharing their perspectives.

The one thing that didn't happen is a formal Dvar Torah or Parsha class. 

At our Shabbos meals, no one looked at their watch!

We hope with this series to bring you a little taste of those shabbos conversations in order that you can either bring up these topics at your table or be empowered to make your own engaging conversations.  

This week we discuss a post that was going around Jewish Twitter about R' Dovid Feinstein. Ahron goes through a process of understanding why everyone thought that Rav Dovid's answer to the question was a display of his righteousness. 

Here's a link to the post we are discussing in this episode: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Emd3D1mXYAAtqEt?format=jpg&name=large

So break out a L'Chaim, reheat some Chulent and Enjoy!
