  • I Saw It On Your Forehead

    I Saw It On Your Forehead
    Nov 5 2025
    This week I have three stories for you. The first begins with Reb Zusha of Anipoli at a roadside inn, where a simple act sets in motion something that will return years later in the most unexpected way. The second opens in 1914, as Reb Meshi Zahav rushes to the Stoliner Rebbe for a blessing — and discovers that when a tzaddik says "stay," there's always a reason.And the last takes us to the town of Pandel, where Reb Chaim Veiler, a great Torah scholar, teaches us what true service looks like through the simplest of acts.
