Sukkot - Living On Faith!

So it really feels like one thing after the other, right? Rosh HaShannah, Yom Kippur, and now: Sukkot - one of our favorite holidays, the one where we bring our insides out - literally. Moving into our Sukkahs reminds us how temporary anything passing for "security" really is. We live in "booths," that is to say, flimsy structures which, no matter how tastefully decorated or sturdily built, are inherently temporary. Just like our lives - and all we have to do is just live in the Sukkah for a week, living on faith, believing that HKBH is the only real security we have in this life!
We'll be off the air for Chag haSukkot beginning Wednesday night until Thursday night this week. We'll be back on the air Thursday night until we're off the air Friday night for Shabbos again! Gevaldt, one thing you can say for the Month of September (Tishrei as it happens to be this year) is that our computers are getting a lot of rest!
Chag Sameach everybody - enjoy your time in the Sukkah and see ya on the radio!

Yom Kippur on Shabbos - The Shabbat Shabbaton!

A wonderful calendar confluence- Yom Kippur falls out on Shabbat this year, making it a "Shabbat Shabbaton,"  the Shabbat of all Shabboses, the highest and holiest day of the year.

We'll be eating manna, the food of angels - we'll be wearing white, we'll be so close to the World to Come that we'll be tasting it and breathing it - and we invite you to meet us there, between the Cherubim, where heaven and earth kiss and make up, where all our hurts are healed and we are assured of our acceptance, forgiveness and restoration with both G*d and our fellow humans.

We're broadcasting special Yom Kippur-themed shiurim and music today as we lead up to about 6pm Israel time, when we'll be off the air until Moetzi Shabbos - Saturday Night - when we'll switch it up to bring in the joyous time immediately following Yom Kippur - join us, won't you?

Have an easy, meaningful and redemptive fast - "Tzom Kal" - and G'mar Chatimah Tovah, you should be written in the Book of Life - signed, sealed and delivered for a health, happy, peaceful and productive New Year!
