When in Israel...
December 28, 2012
— I had an amazing experience recently on my two week trip to Israel; my first visit in thirteen years and my first visit as a rabbi. I spent the first week just breathing in the air, visiting holy sites, attending services and, classes, and taking my time in the bustling, ancient city of Jerusalem.

December 26, 2012
— The other night, while flipping through the channels, I ran across a Christmas special on TV. It was an old one about the year without Santa Claus.

Whether you celebrate Christmas, Chanukah, or no holiday...

December 3, 2012
— You never know the impact that your gift may have in someone's life. What, to you, may seem like a very small, even insignificant, gift may be a life changing moment for the recipient. For most, it will not be because of the gift itself, but the spirit with which it was given. Many of us live our day to day lives unaware of the difference our small...

Success...It's a state of mind
November 29, 2012
— What is success? I believe success is a state of mind. It is having the determination to keep trying while applying lessons from past failings or experiences. Success is the willingness to pursue your dreams and goals while facing challenges to reach your goals. Take Winston Churchhill for an example: Did you know that he failed sixth grade or that...

Leadership--It's Not about You
November 21, 2012
— The sooner you accept the fact leadership is not about you, the sooner you can focus on your Airmen, the organization and the mission.
