Inspired Lives class 1 - Great Beginnings

[Tzippy2]

The Alter of Novordak, R' Yosef Yoizel Horowitz, changed his life because of one inspiring encounter with a great man.  Has something like this ever happened to you or someone you know?  How would you react if your whole way of life was challenged by the rebuke of a great person?

[Matthew]

A man that I know was not always spiritual / religious at all. One day, he came to my Rav to yell at him, thinking that he would have some fun in doing so. However, upon walking up to the Rav he burst into tears and proceeded to do teshuva, and has continued in this ever since.
