Episode notes

In the early 1960s, a wall was put up in Berlin between East and West Germany. A story is told that one morning people living on the Western side of the wall woke up and the people on the East had thrown all their garbage over there. So they said, okay, those darn East Berliners or commies, let's just throw the garbage back on the other side of thewall. Guess what happened in one night to the garbage? It stopped. And letters and things started coming over saying, thank you so much. The power of this is to love your enemies and to do things to them, even if it's really challenging.

Dr. Lincoln Blumell continues to examine the Beatitudes in the Sermon on the Mount.
