If Shabbos is a taste of Gan Eden, why does Friday afternoon so often feel like Gehinom?

Rav Shlomo Katz explores how proper preparation is not just helpful, it’s halacha. Drawing from Peninei Halakha, we learn how getting ready for Shabbos is part of keeping Shabbos itself, and how small shifts during the week can bring peace, presence, and joy into Erev Shabbat.
