I Accidentally Became Rosh Yeshiva after Fighting My Addictions
Shmuel Luger started drinking at nine and things only got worse from there. He felt totally disconnected from Judaism, spiraling through heavy addictions, anxiety, and a deep sense of emptiness. Then a trip to Israel and one honest conversation flipped his world upside down. He didn’t just get sober, he built a yeshiva for guys who don’t fit the system, who are floating and forgotten. Today he has a beautiful family, he’s a Rosh Yeshiva and is working on groundbreaking curriculums.
