What does leadership look like when lives are on the line?

In this powerful episode of Behind the Bima, the Rabbis sit down with Eli Beer, founder and president of United Hatzalah, to discuss lifesaving under fire, leadership under pressure, and what it means to live with purpose.

Eli shares firsthand insight into Israel’s security reality, the emotional toll on volunteers after October 7, and how United Hatzalah continues to respond—within seconds—during war, terror, and crisis. He also opens up about fundraising with integrity, building trust across communities, and why 90 seconds of Torah learning a day keeps him grounded.

This conversation goes far beyond emergency response. It’s about resilience, responsibility, faith, and the power of people who refuse to stand still when lives are on the line.

NOTE: Our release schedule has changed. Episodes will now premiere on Tuesdays at 6am EST.
