Every year, a dear friend calls me before Purim with the same question: "What’s your avodah this year?" And the truth is, that’s exactly how we have to look at Purim: as an avodah, a holy service, no less sacred than the work of the Kohen Gadol on Yom Kippur.

Drawing from the wellsprings of Reb Ya’akov Meir Shechter shlit”a, this shiur reveals how the four mitzvahs of Purim — Mikra Megillah, Mishloach Manot, Matanot LaEvyonim, and Seudat Purim, aren’t just obligations, they’re divine weapons, forged to help us annihilate the inner Amalek that mocks faith and belittles holiness.

We go deep into what it means to fight with simcha, to wage war with joy, and to turn every act of giving, reading, eating, and singing into a direct hit against spiritual doubt.
