If miracles are so powerful, why do people still struggle to believe? In this fascinating class, Rabbi Shafier explores the story of the Exodus from Egypt and reveals a surprising truth about human nature: people often see only what they are willing to see. Through powerful examples, personal insight, and Torah wisdom, this lecture challenges us to approach life with greater honesty, openness, and awareness of Hashem’s presence in the world around us.
