Raised in a religious household but soon ended back in McDonalds. Ariel Berkowitz drifted away from Judaism in high school and faced many challenges. A life-changing accident at 19, where he was run over by a train and lost his legs, led him to reconnect with his faith and see the bigger purpose in his life. He now values his connection to G-d more than anything and embraces the second chance he was given.   Reach out to Ariel to speak for you here: [email protected]   Special thank you to the Solomans, Lubins, Glassmans & Koschitzki's for hosting us for Shabbos!   ✬ SPONSORS OF THE EPISODE ✬   ► Sword2Shekel: Be There for the People of Israel  Whether it's a restaurant, jewelry store or other small company, your donation directly helps business owners stay afloat with an influx of lifesaving cash.  Help Here→ https://bit.ly/4e8ZXeL    ► Adaraba: The Newsletter Transforming Shabbos Tables Join the Chofetz Chaim Heritage Foundation's new Shabbos positivity program called aderaba.   With a weekly newsletter, contests, and awesome prizes you'll watch your family see the good, say the good, and be the good all the time   Join now to start the new year off right →  Cchf.global/aderaba   ► Twillory: The Best Suits & Shirts   Use promo code: INSPIRE for $18 OFF    →  Here: https://Twillory.com/    ► Shulspace: A Shul Platform that Thinks Like You    Born from the vision that Shuls deserve better, discover why Gabbaim say Shulspace is the easiest to use.    → https://www.shulspace.com →  Also Contact Bitbean today for a FREE CONSULTATION https://bitbean.link/xgixES   ✬ IN MEMORY OF ✬    This episode is in memory of:    • Shimon Dovid ben Yaakov Shloima    • Miriam Sarah bas Yaakov Moshe    ✬ Donate and Inspire Millions (Tax-Deductible) ✬   Your generous donation enables us at Living Lchaim to share uplifting messages globally, enrich lives, and foster positive change worldwide!    Thank you!   https://www.LivingLchaim.com/donate   Our free call-in-to-listen feature is here:  • USA: (605) 477-2100  • UK: 0333-366-0154  • ISRAEL: 079-579-5088    Have a specific question? email us [email protected]   WhatsApp us feedback and get first access to episodes:  914-222-5513   Lchaim.
