What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Yussie Zakutinsky’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

like get back to me for intergenerational Divergence I'll see you in a year uh which I totally understand and respect we do different topics we deliberately do different topics hopefully nobody gets bored but also I think in order to address religious life in order to really be able to understand the totality of religious life you have to have some conversations that are head on discussions of Theology and you also need other conversations that are more about life itself because so much of religious life is not arriving at some particular refining some ideology or particular refining some ideology or theology though that that's a part of it but it's also about having a healthy and holistic approach to life itself the quote that always comes to mind for me is what Alex Clare said last year in our teshuva Series where he said first you have to be healthy then happy and then holy and sometimes we talk about things that allow people to be healthy sometimes we talk about things that allow people to be happier and sometimes we talk about things that really refine the idea of what Holiness is what Torah is what God is and I think all of these
