Chabad’s Social Media Success

By Rabbi Jason Miller for the Jewish Week

Chabad Lubavitch has always been out in front when it comes to using the Internet for publicity. Back in the 90’s, Chabad took full advantage of the virtual communities on America Online (AOL) and then launched some of the most impressive websites once everyone migrated to the Web. For years, Chabad has been a strong force in Cyberspace with “Ask the Rabbi” websites, online distance learning, and viral videos.

Spiritual Gravity – The Need For Human Effort

by Rabbi Yosef Kahanov, Jax. FL

Nothing you have acquired is real unless you worked for it. If you were born a nice guy, the niceness isn’t yours. If you started off not so nice, and now you do a little, that’s Divine. (Tzvi Freeman, Be Within Stay Above)
