Are You Covered? (7:52)
While we pay thousands of dollars to insure everything from our health and homes to our cars and other things, do we have the most important insurance of all: soul insurance? The insurance for our soul is following God’s guidelines, as He is The One who gave us our soul and who knows what is best for both our bodies and our souls

Kidneys For Sale: Rationing Renal Therapy (1996) (55:26)
Is it fair for the rich to have the most access to organ transplants? What if a treatment is too expensive, not covered by insureances, or dictated to be done a certain way by the insurance?

False Security (3:20)
What makes you feel secure? Your insurance plan, your past success or wealth? Sometimes, by stepping out of the environments that make us feel secure, we can achieve real security. Learn the power of the hut of faith.

Healthcare Debate (1:10:31)
Why do we spend so much more on healthcare, per capita, than other developed countries? Why do we achieve worse outcomes on several important measures than countries that spend far less? Why do we spend up to twice as much per person as countries that provide universal coverage, while leaving as many as fifty million Americans without insurance? This session takes a brutally honest look at Jewish legal writings on the right to medical care, comparing them to recent legislation in the US, and viewing Jewish law as a model for healthcare reform
Rabbi Shlomo Yaffe (68)
