Rabbi Rael Blumenthal is the rabbi of Boca Raton Synagogue West in Sunny South Florida.
He’s a rabbi on a very public journey of change.
In this episode of the Maggid Method, Rabbi Blumenthal candidly shares how a few years back, he became dissatisfied with his body weight and eating habits, and how he set out to shed the pounds in a very methodical - and public type of way - with the goal of inspiring his congregation to make positive changes in their lives, too.
If there’s one word that defines Rabbi Blumenthal’s Drashos - it’s relevance.
In this interview, we discuss a fascinating technique Rabbi Blumenthal uses to guarantee that his congregation not only listens to his Drashos - but they actually retain the message long after his Drasha his over.
We also cover how Rabbi Blumenthal needed to shift his speaking style to reach the current generation of Shul goers, vs how he was trained to speak while growing up.
And we also talk about how you can use the challenge of speaking in an era of distraction and shrinking attention spans to your advantage.
What I love about Rabbi Blumenthal is how seriously he takes his role as rabbi, yet at the same time, how he doesn't take himself too seriously - and how humbled he is at the opportunity to be in his position.
