Shiurim and Divrei Chizzuk from our Mashpia Rav Burg and other inspirational speakers to light up our soul.
-
Purim - Sleeping Through Our Relationship With Hashem
In this shiur, delivered to the Chizzuk Mission in Aish HaTorah, Rav Burg explains the inner connection between sleeping through our performance of the Mitzvos and our connection with each and every Jew. Only when we are deeply connected to the soul of Torah and Mitzvos can we be deeply connected to each other. Only when we are connected to the soul do we merit protection from Hashem.

Pikudei - The Power of Desire
In this shiur, delivered in Ba'er Miriam, Rav Burg explains how through our desire we discover hidden talents within ourselves. When we have desire Hashem gives us the vessels that we need to be successful.
-
Pikudei - Accounting for the Unaccounted Jews
In this shiur, delivered in Tomer Devorah, Rav explains the missing 1775 shekalim from the Mishkan. The Mishkan is meant to be a bridge between the spiritual and material world but without an accounting of every single Jew the bridge is incomplete. Why can't we see these missing Jews? Their light is absolutely blinding.

Adar: Increasing Joy - Finding Simcha In Pain
In this shiur, delivered in Aish HaTorah to the Chizzuk Mission, Rav Burg explores how we can increase joy even in times of great tragedy. Rav Akiva woke up his Talmidim by explaining that Esther HaMalka ruled over 127 countries because Sarah Imeinu lived for 127 years. Al though the years of Sarah's life were far from simple, she found the good in every moment and that is how we survive and thrive even in the darkest moments of our exile.

Vayakhel - Inspiring Those Who Feel Unworthy
In this shiur, delivered in Sharfmans, Rav Burg explains why Betzalel and Ohaliav were equal with regards to building the Mishkan. Klal Yisrael required divine inspiration to build the Mishkan. A nation of slaves lacked the artisanal skills that would be necessary for building. Betzalel inspired those who felt worthy but Ohaliav, with his simple background, inspired the lowest of Jews.

Vayakhel - Uniting Klal Yisrael Through Shnayim Mikra V'echad Targum
In honor of the Mevaseret Talmidim who took upon themselves to learn Shnayim Mikra V'echad Targum this year, Rav Glanz and Rav Burg Fabrenged in Mevaseret. (Shiur begins at the 4:30 mark). Rav Burg explains how the sefer of Shemos, which is the Sefer of our redemption, is connected to the notion of Shnayim Mikra V'echad Targum. Only when we see the unity in all of the voices of Torah will we be worthy of rebuilding the Beis HaMikdash.
