Mishpacha was founded in 1987 on a dream. Aiming to facilitate the exchange of ideas and values between the varying streams within the Orthodox Jewish world, among them the Hassidic, Yeshivish, Sephardic, and Modern Orthodox communities, publisher Eli Paley and editor Rabbi Moshe Grylak launched a phenomenon: Mishpacha magazine. The brand’s first English edition, published in 2004 due to popular request, took the Jewish communities of North America, Europe, South Africa and Australia by storm with world-class journalism, fiction, and op-eds that set the agenda from Shabbos tables to board rooms. Everyone wanted to be a part of the conversation. Mishpacha’s reach further expanded in 2006 with Family First, a full-color weekly magazine connecting tens of thousands of Jewish women and girls around the world. Today some 250,000+ readers on every continent across the globe make Mishpacha magazines a part of their lives. The conversation continues.
The sheer chutzpah of these men is beyond the pale. They don't pick up phones, respond to texts or emails, or otherwise engage with fathers of girls. But they have the temerity to request charity every year -- even from those for whom they have never arranged even a single date. Tzadok Katz has been dodging my calls, WhatsApp's and texts for nearly a year. What kind of person behaves this way? Work with shadchanim who care. These people are barely human beings.
Yossi Hecht is such a tzaddik! I am privileged to have him as a friend! He projects as such a cheerful fun guy, but you see from this interview how deep and insightful he is.
why is there no app or advanced program to matchmake based on "profiles" that individuals can create based on their preferences and what they are looking for? its 2023...
No smoking is not a normal thing. It's against halacha. It kills, it's disgusting and so is normalising it. Girls have to be so perfect, but you have no problem normalising smoking for boys. If you tell guys it's not ok, and you won't get a shidduch maybe the attitude that's it's no big deal will stop.
Wow! As great as the music are the interviews. Great editing and initiative to everyone involved and who participated. Though maybe blue out the homeless guys punav next time.
To be dependent on government funding leaves us in the precarious situation that Volozhin was in over 100 years ago! Emunah and Bitachon…we need to raise our level so haShem can create a kli for himself so He can provide a solution we never thought we f!
Oh yes - that Birchas Kohanim with his sons - heartwarming!! And speaking of his interaction with his audiences - Hu Yivneh Bayis or Aleh Katan. When the audience is in the spirit with Avrohom, he SOARS with them. It's exhilarating to watch!!
His spoken message is as inspiring as his singing. All of it is sincere!! May Hashem give him Arichas Yomim to continue his beloved Sh'lichus for the benefit of Klal Yisroel.

HASHEM should give you & your wife the strength to help many more people/ couples. & shower you will Brocha & Hatzlacha!!!
Rabbi Kotler was qualified to have been a top notch CEO for any Fortune 500 company. It's to his credit that he took his talents to the holy cause of BMG and built it into the behemoth that it is.
This was a really interesting and informative interview Sruly Beser is literally the top interviewer in Klal Yisrael he knows what questions to ask I really think this should have been a lot longer
