Joseph’s Vision
Why did Joseph put his brothers through suffering when God never told him to?
Where is the verse that commands Joseph to test them—and what does its absence reveal about forgiveness, trauma, and reconciliation?
This teaching wrestles honestly with one of the most emotionally charged moments in the Torah. Is Joseph seeking revenge, justice, or healing? Why does he weep again and again? And what does his story teach us about seeing those who wounded us—not through fear or resentment, but through love?
Joseph’s journey forces us to ask a hard question:

The Light of the World
Hanukkah isn’t just a winter tradition — it’s a bold declaration of light in a world growing darker by the day. Why did Judaism survive when every empire around it collapsed? What made the Maccabees fight back instead of assimilate? And what does their courage demand from us now, when hostility toward the people of Israel is rising again? In this Hanukkah message, Rabbi Damian uncovers the deeper call of the festival: to resist the pressure to hide, to shine the light we’ve been given, and to awaken hope in a weary world. Join us to discover why the light still matters.

Jacob isn’t usually imagined as a warrior — yet the Torah reveals a side of him we rarely acknowledge. Why does he prepare for battle? Why does he divide his camp with military precision? And what does his mysterious struggle at Peniel reveal about the kind of strength God calls each of us to walk in? In this teaching, we uncover three surprising insights that reshape not only how we see Jacob, but how we face our own battles. Join Rabbi Damian as he explored the night Jacob became a warrior — and why it matters for your spiritual journey.

In this teaching, Rabbi Damian tackles a rising trend that redefines who the children of Abraham really are. Why is this message spreading so quickly?

If you’ve ever wrestled with questions about Israel, inheritance, or who truly belongs to God’s covenant family, this teaching will challenge, comfort, and clarify. Discover what’s at stake — and why gratitude matters now more than ever.

The Jewish Jesus
It sounds so simple and obvious: The Jewish Jesus. But this essential truth has been lost to nearly all of his followers. Why has the Jewishness of Jesus been downplayed or even denied throughout a large part of history? Why is this one simple fact critical to our relationship with him?
