No less than nineteen mitzvos focus on Yetzias Mitzrayim. From Mezuzahs to Tefillin to Shema, we are commanded to remember the events in this week’s parsha. Why does it form the bedrock of our faith? As the Ramban explains, Hashem isn’t in the business of making everyday miracles. There was one moment in history where we clearly saw Hashem as real, present and maintaining every single aspect of existence. This is deeply relevant to you. By learning how Hashem is in control of the big picture, you can also come to see His involvement in the small details of your own life as well. By discovering the fifth and sixth levels of emunah you can step away from your physical confines, see beyond the limits of nature and begin to view Creation in a dramatic new light.

You matter more than you think. In this class, Rabbi Shafier unpacks the creation of man and why the malachim questioned whether humanity should even exist. The reason is simple and heavy: human actions don’t just affect personal life, they move the entire spiritual system. Using sharp, relatable analogies like home-court advantage in sports, Rabbi Shafier shows how your role, your capacity, and your everyday choices carry real weight. This class will change how seriously you take the small things, because in the spiritual world, nothing you do is small.

In this class, Rabbi Shafier shows how real willpower is built, starting with Rabbi Akiva, who held onto his emunah even while being tortured to death. He then connects it straight to real life, including the famous Stanford marshmallow test, proving that the ability to delay gratification predicts long-term success. The message is clear: willpower isn’t something you’re born with, it’s a muscle you train. Build it, and everything else in life gets easier to control.
