In the age of social media, is it possible to do a Mitzvah without an audience?
Rav Shlomo Katz explores the spiritual war against Midian through the lens of the Degel Machane Ephraim (grandson of the Baal Shem Tov). We analyze the command Hechaletzu (arm yourselves), interpreted here as "Remove yourself"—meaning, remove your ego and your need for validation from the equation.
Rav Shlomo challenges us to have "Secrets with Hashem" — holy moments that are never posted, shared, or spoken about.
Featuring stories about Reb Shlomo Carlebach and his undocumented moments of holiness in the most unlikely places, this episode is a call to recapture the intimacy of a relationship with God that exists strictly behind closed doors.

What is Rav Shlomo Katz on the Parsha?
Each week, Rav Shlomo Katz opens the parsha through the inner world of Torah, drawing from the deep wells of the Chassidic masters.
With warmth, clarity, and honesty, these teachings weave together Chassidus, Tanach, and lived experience, inviting us to encounter the parsha not only as a text to be studied but as a mirror for the soul.
