Shalom everyone! This is Rabbi Brian I'm glad you joined us for another episode of the Dust of the Rabbi podcast. In this episode of the Dust the Rabbi podcast, Rabbi Brian delves into Teshuvah, focusing on its application in the life of King David. The episode elaborates on the concept of Teshuvah, which means 'returning to God,' and highlights David's journey of repentance, renewal, and restoration. Rabbi Brian walks listeners through the historical and spiritual significance of David, detailing his roles as a shepherd, warrior, psalmist, and king. He underscores David's heartfelt repentance as captured in Psalm 51 and outlines the steps of true Teshuvah: acknowledging sin, feeling its weight, seeking renewal, and committing to a new path.
🎙Four Steps to the Teshuvah Process from Episode 2 of Season 5:
🔹 1. Recognize the wrong (Hakarat HaChet) – Admit where you’ve strayed.
🔹 2. Feel the weight (Charatah) – Genuine sorrow leads to change.
🔹 3. Turn back (Azivat HaChet) – Leave behind what caused separation.
🔹 4. Commit to a new path (Kabbalah Le’atid) – Walk differently as we move forward on a new path; accepting a resolution upon oneself for the future
Through David's story, Rabbi Brian encourages listeners to confront their own sins, embrace God's mercy, and transform their lives by returning to God wholeheartedly. So let's jump in to our third episode and dive in so we can continue the Teshuvah Process, as we download Ancient Jewish Wisdom, and become dusty from the dust of the rabbi, and drink in His words with thirst.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
