A Beginner’s Guide to the Kingdom of Heaven (Sermon on the Mount Series Part 1)

On Erev Rosh Hashanah we began a new series from the Sermon on the Mount. At times called, “A Beginner’s Guide to the Kingdom of Heaven,” these simple words from Matthew 5:1-2 reverse the world’s expectations for success and reveal G-d’s heart and values that characterize real life in the Kingdom of Heaven. By Senior Rabbi Nathan Joiner at Ruach Israel, September 15, 2023 during the Erev Rosh Hashonah 5784 service.
