Gates of Trust

Ancient Jewish Wisdom for overcoming anxiety during these turbulent times.

In these turbulent times, many of us are filled with anxiety and even fear. Aside from being harmful for our health, the Torah tells us that these traits actually repel Divine blessings like a shield. The Rebbe explains that our ability to trust in G-d is itself the source of all the Divine Blessings we yearn for: "Trust is like a faucet: when we have it, our blessings pour through; when we lack it, the faucet has been shut off."

To provide our Jewish community with the tools to cope with these challenges, Rabbi Dovid Vigler of Chabad of Palm Beach Gardens presents this online course to empower you with tools to replace your fear with faith and your anxiety with hope.

This philosophical course is based on "The Gates of Trust," one of the most celebrated philosophical texts of all of Jewish history written by the 11th century sage, Rabbi Bachya ibn Pakuda of Zaragoza, Spain.

The course originally began the very week that the Shul was locked down in the middle of March 2020 and was concluded on June 15, 2020 in 34 classes. We invite you to enjoy all the complimentary classes of this course at JewishGardens.com/Trust. Rabbi Vigler's classes on Gates of Trust have also been picked up by the global Torah learning website GatesofTrust.org where you can find a complimentary copy of the Gates of Trust book translated into English.

Rabbi Dovid Vigler teaches vibrant Torah classes to hundreds of participants on a plethora of subjects ranging from Jewish Law and Philosophy to Talmud and Hebrew Reading & Meditation each weekday morning at 8:30am at Youtube.com/JewishGardens and at Facebook.com/JewishGardens.
